Request

The version of xz/liblzma currently used in the core is outdated and potentially vulnerable. To enhance security and prevent exposure to high-severity CVEs.

Vulnerability Details:

  1. CVE-2024-3094
  • Severity: Critical (Score: 10.0)
  • Affects: xz versions 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 only
  • Risk: Accidental future upgrades could unknowingly introduce this vulnerability.
  1. CVE-2025-31115
  • Severity: High (Score: 8.7)
  • Affects: xz version 5.3.3alpha to 5.8.0
  • Risk: vulnerable to the CVE if not upgraded to 5.8.1 or later

Possible implementation

Recommended Action:

  • Upgrade to xz ≥ 5.8.1 to fully mitigate both vulnerabilities at the same time.
  • Optionally add version checks in build/config scripts to prevent regression into vulnerable versions.
