CVE-2026-59676 is a local time-of-check time-of-use race condition in the seunshare utility in SELinux policycoreutils through version 3.10. The flaw is in the recursive cleanup routine rm_rf(), which uses openat() during directory traversal without O_NOFOLLOW despite the routine intending not to follow symbolic links. An attacker can race the recursive deletion logic by replacing a directory entry with a symbolic link between checks and use, causing the privileged cleanup path to operate on unintended filesystem targets. When seunshare is installed setuid-root and invoked by a user running in the unconfined SELinux domain, this can result in deletion of arbitrary root-owned files. The issue was fixed upstream in SELinux userspace utilities version 3.11.
