Summary: patch security update
Details: Patch takes a patch file containing a difference listing produced by the diff program and applies those differences to one or more original files, producing patched versions. Security Fix(es): A flaw was found in GNU patch. An attacker can achieve arbitrary file creation outside the intended working directory by enticing a user or automated workflow to apply a specially crafted patch file. Due to missing validation during automatic patch reversal, absolute file paths in patch headers are accepted rather than rejected. Consequently, the utility can create files in arbitrary locations with the permissions of the executing user.(CVE-2026-115207)
