Upgrade tar to fix PAX header size parsing (CVE-2026-33055) enabling symlink smuggling, and symlink-following chmod vulnerability (CVE-2026-33056).
✅ 2 CVEs resolved by this upgrade
This PR will resolve the following CVEs:
unpack_dirfunction follows symbolic links when checking if paths are directories, allowing a crafted tarball with a symlink followed by a directory entry to modify permissions of arbitrary directories outside the extraction root. This vulnerability enables arbitrary permission modification (chmod) on external directories through symlink dereferencing.
