The attacker could choose which installer to target.\n2. An attacker could contrive a \"stacked\" ZIP input with multiple internal ZIPs, which would be handled differently by different package installers. The attacker could choose which installer to target.\n\nIn both cases, the outcome is that an attacker can produce a ZIP with a consistent digest that expands differently with different installers.\n\nThe [ZIP standard](https://pkware.cachefly.net/webdocs/casestudies/APPNOTE.TXT) is ambiguous with respect to these behavior differentials. Consequently, these same differentials may be accepted ZIP parsers other than those used in uv. This advisory is for uv in particular, but all consumers of ZIP-based Python package distributions, e.g., pip, are potentially susceptible to similar parser differentials in other ZIP parsers.\n\nThe practical impact of these differentials is limited by a number of factors:\n\n- To be compromised via this vulnerability, user interaction of some sort is required. In particular, the user must run `uv install $package` with an attacker-controlled `$package`.\n- When using wheel distributions, installation of the malicious package is not sufficient for execution of malicious code, the vicim would need to perform a separate invocation, e.g., `python -c \"import $package\"`.\n- If a ZIP-based source distribution (which are less common than tarball source distributions), is encountered, malicious code can be executed during package resolution or installation. uv may invoke the malicious code when building the source distribution into a wheel.\n- The practical impact of these differentials is limited by a coordinated fix to [Warehouse](https://github.com/pypi/warehouse), PyPI's backend: Warehouse now rejects ZIPs exhibiting these differentials, limiting the ability of an attacker to distribute malicious ZIP distributions via PyPI. As part of that coordinated fix, a review of Warehouse revealed no evidence of exploitation.\n\n## Patches\n\nVersions 0.8.6 and newer of uv address both of the parser differentials above, by refusing to process ZIPs with duplicated local file entries or stacked contents.\n\n## Workarounds\n\nUsers are advised to upgrade to 0.8.6 or newer to address this advisory.\n\nMost users should experience no breaking changes as a result of the patch above. However, users who do experience breakage should carefully review their distributions for signs of malicious intent. Users may choose to set `UV_INSECURE_NO_ZIP_VALIDATION=1` to revert to the previous behavior.\n\n## Attribution\n\nThis vulnerability was discovered separately by two different individuals: Caleb Brown (Google) and Tim Hatch (Netflix).","status":"published","published":"2026-07-07T16:03:00.566998Z","modified":"2026-07-07T17:47:54.161429281Z","cvss":[{"version":"4.0","score":6.8,"vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","level":"medium"}],"updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:52:55.537808Z"},{"id":"openSUSE-SU-2025:15429-1","title":"python311-uv-0.8.8-1.1 on GA media","description":"These are all security issues fixed in the python311-uv-0.8.8-1.1 package on the GA media of openSUSE Tumbleweed.","status":"published","published":"2025-08-09T00:00:00Z","modified":"2026-03-23T04:53:46.102242Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T16:58:37.810934Z"}]}}
