+ <title>Tar: Directory traversal vulnerability</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Tar is vulnerable to directory traversal possibly allowing for the
+ overwriting of arbitrary files.
+ </synopsis>
+ <product type="ebuild">tar</product>
+ <announced>December 11, 2006</announced>
+ <revised>December 11, 2006: 01</revised>
+ <bug>155901</bug>
+ <access>remote</access>
+ <affected>
+ <package name="app-arch/tar" auto="yes" arch="*">
+ <unaffected range="ge">1.16-r2</unaffected>
+ <vulnerable range="lt">1.16-r2</vulnerable>
+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ The Tar program provides the ability to create and manipulate tar
+ archives.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Tar does not properly extract archive elements using the GNUTYPE_NAMES
+ record name, allowing files to be created at arbitrary locations using
+ symlinks. Once a symlink is extracted, files after the symlink in the
+ archive will be extracted to the destination of the symlink.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could entice a user to extract a specially crafted tar
+ archive, possibly allowing for the overwriting of arbitrary files on
+ the system extracting the archive.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Tar users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-arch/tar-1.16-r2&quot;</code>
