| Title: | DSA-2142-1 dpkg -- directory traversal | ||
| Description: | Jakub Wilk discovered that the dpkg-source component of dpkg, the Debian package management system, doesn't correctly handle paths in patches of source packages, which could make it traverse directories. Raphaël Hertzog additionally discovered that symbolic links in the .pc directory are followed, which could make it traverse directories too. Both issues only affect source packages using the "3.0 quilt" format at unpack-time. | ||

| Title: | USN-1038-1 -- dpkg vulnerability | ||
| Description: | Jakub Wilk and Raphaël Hertzog discovered that dpkg-source did not correctly handle certain paths and symlinks when unpacking source-format version 3.0 packages. If a user or an automated system were tricked into unpacking a specially crafted source package, a remote attacker could modify files outside the target unpack directory, leading to a denial of service or potentially gaining access to the system. | ||

| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 70368 | dpkg dpkg-source source-format Package Traversal Arbitrary File Overwrite dpkg contains a flaw that allows a context-dependent attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the dpkg-source component not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied via patches for source-format packages. This directory traversal attack would allow the attacker to overwrite arbitrary files. |
