Fedora Legacy Test Update Notification
FEDORALEGACY-2004-2272
Bugzilla https://bugzilla.fedora.us/show_bug.cgi?id=2272
2004-12-02
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Name        : unarj
Versions    : rh7.3: unarj-2.63a-4.0.7.3.1.legacy
Versions    : rh9: unarj-2.63a-4.0.9.1.legacy
Versions    : fc1: unarj-2.63a-4.1.1.legacy
Summary     : An uncompressor for .arj format archive files.
Description : 
The UNARJ program is used to uncompress .arj format archives. The .arj
format archive was mostly used on DOS machines.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated unarj packages that fixes a number of security flaws are now
available.

A buffer overflow bug has been discovered in unarj when handling long
file names contained in an archive. An attacker could create an archive
with a specially crafted path which could cause unarj to crash or
execute arbitrary instructions.  The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0947 to
this issue.

Additionally, a path traversal vulnerability exists in unarj which
allows an attacker to extract files to the parent ("..") directory. When
used recursively, this vulnerability can be used to overwrite critical
system files and programs.

Users of unarj are advised to upgrade to these errata packages, which
contain a backported patch correcting these issues.
