  - GNU tar 1.16 and 1.15.1, and possibly other versions,
    allows user-assisted attackers to overwrite arbitrary
    files via a tar file that contains a GNUTYPE_NAMES
    record with a symbolic link, which is not properly
    handled by the extract_archive function in extract.c and
    extract_mangle function in mangle.c, a variant of
    CVE-2002-1216. (CVE-2006-6097)

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the

    allows user-assisted remote attackers to overwrite
    arbitrary files via certain //.. (slash slash dot dot)
    sequences in directory symlinks in a TAR archive.

  - Buffer overflow in the safer_name_suffix function in GNU
    tar has unspecified attack vectors and impact, resulting

  - Heap-based buffer overflow in the rmt_read__ function in
    lib/rtapelib.c in the rmt client functionality in GNU
    tar before 1.23 and GNU cpio before 2.11 allows remote
    rmt servers to cause a denial of service (memory

    sending more data than was requested, related to archive
    filenames that contain a : (colon) character.
    (CVE-2010-0624)

  - Directory traversal vulnerability in the
    safer_name_suffix function in GNU tar 1.14 through 1.29

    protection mechanism and write to arbitrary files via
    vectors related to improper sanitization of the

"The unzip and tar utilities contain vulnerabilities which can allow
arbitrary files to be overwritten during archive extraction.

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."
