Hi,

The following vulnerability was published for rpm.

CVE-2026-44604[0]:
| A command injection vulnerability was discovered in the
| `rpmuncompress` utility of RPM. When extracting certain archive
| formats (ZIP, 7z, GEM) to a specified destination directory, the
| tool inserts the archive's top-level folder name into a shell
| command without properly sanitizing it. A specially crafted archive
| containing shell metacharacters in its folder name can execute
| arbitrary commands as the user running the extraction.


If you fix the vulnerability please also make sure to include the
CVE (Common Vulnerabilities & Exposures) id in your changelog entry.
