Detail

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in lha:

- CAN-2004-0234 - Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the get_header function in header.c for LHA 1.14 allow remote attackers or local users to execute arbitrary code via long directory or file names in an LHA archive, which triggers the overflow when testing or extracting the archive.

- CAN-2004-0235 - Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in LHA 1.14 allow remote attackers or local users to create arbitrary files via an LHA archive containing filenames with (1) .. sequences or (2) absolute pathnames with double leading slashes ("//absolute/path").

For the current stable distribution (woody), these problems have been fixed in version 1.14i-2woody1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.14i-8.

We recommend that you update your lha package.

Id Description
9520 LHA extract_one Function Overflow
9519 LHA LHarc Format 2 Header Pathname Overflow
5755 LHA Arbitrary File Access

LHA contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to view arbitrary files on the system. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically traversal style attacks (../../) which will allow a remote attacker to view arbitrary files on the system, resulting in a loss of confidentiality.
5753 LHA get_header() Function File / Directory Name Handling Overflow

A remote overflow exists in LHA. The get_header() function fails to perform proper bounds checking resulting in a buffer overflow. By sending an LHA archive containing files with overly long file or directory names, a remote attacker can cause arbitrary code execution resulting in a loss of integrity.
