Hi, The following vulnerability was published for rust-coreutils. CVE-2026-35341[0]: | A vulnerability in uutils coreutils mkfifo allows for the | unauthorized modification of permissions on existing files. When | mkfifo fails to create a FIFO because a file already exists at the | target path, it fails to terminate the operation for that path and | continues to execute a follow-up set_permissions call. This results | in the existing file's permissions being changed to the default mode | (often 644 after umask), potentially exposing sensitive files such | as SSH private keys to other users on the system. https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues/10020 If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
