    The unzip and tar utilities are used for dealing with archives, which
    are multiple files stored inside of a single file.
    
    A directory traversal vulnerability in unzip version 5.42 and earlier,
    as well as GNU tar 1.13.19 and earlier, allows attackers to overwrite
    arbitrary files during archive extraction via a '..' (dot dot) in an
    extracted filename (CVE-2001-1267, CVE-2001-1268). In addition, unzip
    version 5.42 and earlier also allows attackers to overwrite arbitrary
    files during archive extraction via filenames in the archive that
    begin with the '/' (slash) character (CVE-2001-1269).
    
    During testing of the fix to GNU tar, we discovered that GNU tar
    1.13.25 was still vulnerable to a modified version of the same
    problem. Red Hat has provided a patch to tar 1.3.25 to correct this
    problem (CVE-2002-0399).
    
    Users of unzip and tar are advised to upgrade to these errata
    packages, containing unzip version 5.50 and a patched version of GNU
    tar 1.13.25, which are not vulnerable to these issues."

    descriptionAccording to the versions of the python-pillow package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities : - Integer overflow in the ImagingResampleHorizontal function in libImaging/Resample.c in Pillow before 3.1.1 allows remote attackers to have unspecified impact via negative values of the new size, which triggers a heap-based buffer overflow.(CVE-2016-4009) - An issue was discovered in urllib2 in Python 2.x through 2.7.17 and urllib in Python 3.x through 3.8.0. CRLF injection is possible if the attacker controls a url parameter, as demonstrated by the first argument to urllib.request.urlopen with \r\n (specifically in the host component of a URL) followed by an HTTP header. This is similar to the CVE-2019-9740 query string issue and the CVE-2019-9947 path string issue. (This is not exploitable when glibc has CVE-2016-10739 fixed.)(CVE-2014-3589) - Python Image Library (PIL) 1.1.7 and earlier and Pillow 2.3 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in unspecified vectors related to CVE-2014-1932, possibly JpegImagePlugin.py.(CVE-2014-3007) - The documentation XML-RPC server in Python through 2.7.16, 3.x through 3.6.9, and 3.7.x through 3.7.4 has XSS via the server_title field. This occurs in Lib/DocXMLRPCServer.py in Python 2.x, and in Lib/xmlrpc/server.py in Python 3.x. If set_server_title is called with untrusted input, arbitrary JavaScript can be delivered to clients that visit the http URL for this server.(CVE-2014-1933) - Directory traversal vulnerability in the (1) extract and (2) extractall functions in the tarfile module in Python allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a .. (dot dot) sequence in filenames in a TAR archive, a related issue to CVE-2001-1267.(CVE-2014-1932) - An issue was discovered in Pillow before 6.2.0. When reading specially crafted invalid image files, the library can either allocate very large amounts of memory or take an extremely long period of time to process the image.(CVE-2019-16865) - libImaging/FliDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has an FLI buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-5313) - libImaging/PcxDecode.c in Pillow before 6.2.2 has a PCX P mode buffer overflow.(CVE-2020-5312) Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
