Description
apko allows users to build and publish OCI container images built from apk packages. From version 0.14.8 to before version 1.2.5, a crafted .apk could install a TypeSymlink tar entry whose target pointed outside the build root, and a subsequent directory-creation or file-write entry in the same or later archive could traverse that symlink to reach host paths the build user could write to. This issue has been patched in version 1.2.5.
