Detail
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 14.10 - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Summary: libarchive could be made to crash or overwrite files. Software Description: - libarchive: Library to read/write archive files Details: It was discovered that the libarchive bsdcpio utility extracted absolute paths by default without using the --insecure flag, contrary to expectations. If a user or automated system were tricked into extracting cpio archives containing absolute paths, a remote attacker may be able to write to arbitrary files. (CVE-2015-2304) Fabian Yamaguchi discovered that libarchive incorrectly handled certain type conversions. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libarchive to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2013-0211) Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 14.10: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS: In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
