NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream microshift-gateway-api package and not the microshift-gateway-api package as distributed by RHEL.

The filepath.Walk and filepath.WalkDir functions are documented as not following symbolic links, but both functions are susceptible to a TOCTOU (time of check/time of use) race condition where a portion of the path being walked is replaced with a symbolic link while the walk is in progress.
