CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
PACKAGE : unzip
SUMMARY : Directory transversal vulnerability
DATE : 2003-07-02 18:57:00
ID : CLA-2003:672
RELEVANT
RELEASES : 7.0, 8, 9

DESCRIPTION
unzip is a program widely used for the distribution of multiple files
concatenated/compacted (a file commonly known as an "archive").
A vulnerability has been found in the way unzip extracts files with
invalid characters between two '.' (dot) characters in their
path/names. These characters are filtered and result in a ".."
sequence (indicating the parent directory). By exploiting this
vulnerability, an attacker can overwrite arbitrary files if the user
unpacking such an archive has sufficient filesystem permissions to do
so.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2003-0282 to this issue.
SOLUTION
All unzip users should upgrade.
