+Subject: [PATCH] Fix TOCTOU symlink vulnerability in SoftFileLock (#465)
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-22701
+Upstream-Status: Backport [https://github.com/tox-dev/filelock/commit/41b42dd2c72aecf7da83dbda5903b8087dddc4d5]
+
+Backport Changes:
+- Omitted docs/index.rst because the filelock 3.13.4 source archive
+ does not contain the upstream documentation tree. The omission does
+ not affect the SoftFileLock security fix.
+
+Co-authored-by: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
+(cherry picked from commit 41b42dd2c72aecf7da83dbda5903b8087dddc4d5)
