Important: acl security update (Amazon Linux 2023)

Package updates are available for Amazon Linux 2023 that fix the following vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-54370: A time-of-check to time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition vulnerability was found in acl. By replacing a pathname component with a symbolic link between a security check and subsequent file operations, an attacker can redirect file access control list operations. This occurs when privileged processes invoke `getfacl` or `setfacl` over an attacker-controlled path, potentially leading to local privilege escalation. CVE-2026-54369: A flaw was found in the `acl` component, specifically within its `libacl` pathname-based functions. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability by using a symbolic link to replace a pathname component. This could allow the attacker to redirect access control list (ACL) read or write operations to arbitrary files or directories, leading to unauthorized manipulation of ACLs and ultimately local privilege escalation.
