Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for rust-coreutils.

CVE-2026-35352[0]:
| A Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition exists in the
| mkfifo utility of uutils coreutils. The utility creates a FIFO and
| then performs a path-based chmod to set permissions. A local
| attacker with write access to the parent directory can swap the
| newly created FIFO for a symbolic link between these two operations.
| This redirects the chmod call to an arbitrary file, potentially
| enabling privilege escalation if the utility is run with elevated
| privileges.
