      <title>CVE-2026-112938 — filelock: StrictSoftFileLock follows a symbolic link swapped in at &lt;path&gt;.filelock and creates claim files in a directo…</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-112938</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; tox-dev filelock&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;filelock is a platform-independent file lock for Python. From 3.30.0 until 4.2.1, On POSIX platforms, StrictSoftFileLock and AsyncStrictSoftFileLock validate the coordination directory in _ensure_protocol_directory but later reach the claims directory through _open_directory by pathname, allowing a local account that can rename the coordination name to swap in a symbolic link between check and use during acquisition. That race can create and leave claim files in another writable directory or strand claims in a different strict lock so the second lock times out. Separately, the claims property and force_break follow a resting symbolic link without a race when the lock user inspects or recovers the lock. Claims inspection discloses a file name to the other account only if the resulting exception text or claim_name reaches that account through a shared log, CI output, or error report. A blind force_break recovery that removes live claims from another strict lock can allow two processes into that lock&amp;#39;s critical section; this path reaches other strict locks, not arbitrary files. This issue is fixed in version 4.2.1.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
