How to fix?

Upgrade Echo:latest flatpak to version 1.14.10-1~deb12u2 or higher.

NVD Description

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

A malicious user can get read-access to files in the flatpak-system-helper context if a system OCI repository is configured, because the OCI code paths in the system helper follow symlinks when importing OCI images that are under the user's control.
