    descriptionMultiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in cabextract : The MS-ZIP decompressor in cabextract before 1.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a malformed MSZIP archive in a .cab file during a test or extract action, related to the libmspack library (CVE-2010-2800). Integer signedness error in the Quantum decompressor in cabextract before 1.3, when archive test mode is used, allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted Quantum archive in a .cab file, related to the libmspack library (CVE-2010-2801). Packages for 2009.0 are provided as of the Extended Maintenance Program. Please visit this link to learn more: http://store.mandriva.com/product_info.php?cPath=149&amp;products_id=4 90 The updated packages provides cabextract 1.3 which is not vulnerable to these issues.
