Detail
| A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives: - Ubuntu 11.10 - Ubuntu 11.04 - Ubuntu 10.10 - Ubuntu 10.04 LTS Summary: Ark could be made to remove files. Software Description: - kdeutils: KDE general-purpose utilities Details: Tim Brown discovered that Ark did not properly perform input validation when previewing archive files. If a user were tricked into opening a crafted archive file, an attacker could remove files via directory traversal. Update instructions: The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions: Ubuntu 11.10: Ubuntu 11.04: Ubuntu 10.10: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS: After a standard system update you need to restart your session to make all the necessary changes. NOTE: In order to build KDE Utilities on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS, 10.10 and 11.04, it was necessary to rebuild portions of the KDE point release updates. References: Package Information: |

|---|---|
| 74180 | KDE kdeutils Ark Traversal Arbitrary File Deletion KDE kdeutils Ark contains a flaw that allows a remote attacker to traverse outside of a restricted path. The issue is due to the program not properly sanitizing user input, specifically directory traversal style attacks (e.g., ../../) supplied via .ZIP files. This directory traversal attack would allow the attacker to access and delete arbitrary files. |
