NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream singularity package and not the singularity package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.21 relevant fixed versions and status.

Insecure permissions (777) are set on $HOME/.singularity when it is newly created by Singularity (version from 3.3.0 to 3.5.1), which could lead to an information leak, and malicious redirection of operations performed against Sylabs cloud services.
