CVE-2026-22702 SUSE CVE security@suse.de SUSE Security Team SUSE CVE-2026-22702 Interim 1 1 2026-03-05T00:18:20Z current 2026-03-05T00:18:20Z 2026-03-05T00:18:20Z cve-database/bin/generate-cvrf-cve.pl 2020-12-27T01:00:00Z CVE-2026-22702 virtualenv is a tool for creating isolated virtual python environments. Prior to version 20.36.1, TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) vulnerabilities in virtualenv allow local attackers to perform symlink-based attacks on directory creation operations. An attacker with local access can exploit a race condition between directory existence checks and creation to redirect virtualenv's app_data and lock file operations to attacker-controlled locations. This issue has been patched in version 20.36.1.
