Description

autoar-extractor.c in GNOME gnome-autoar through 0.2.4, as used by GNOME Shell, Nautilus, and other software, allows Directory Traversal during extraction because it lacks a check of whether a file's parent is a symlink to a directory outside of the intended extraction location.

Solution(s)

  • suse-upgrade-gnome-autoar-devel
  • suse-upgrade-libgnome-autoar-0-0
  • suse-upgrade-libgnome-autoar-gtk-0-0
  • suse-upgrade-typelib-1_0-gnomeautoar-0_1
  • suse-upgrade-typelib-1_0-gnomeautoargtk-0_1
