===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-650-1           October 02, 2008
cpio vulnerability
CVE-2007-4476
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 7.04
Ubuntu 7.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
  cpio                            2.6-10ubuntu0.3

Ubuntu 7.04:
  cpio                            2.6-17ubuntu0.7.04.1

Ubuntu 7.10:
  cpio                            2.8-1ubuntu2.2

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

A buffer overflow was discovered in cpio. If a user were tricked into
opening a crafted cpio archive, an attacker could cause a denial of
service via application crash, or possibly execute code with the
privileges of the user invoking the program. (CVE-2007-4476)
