Package : unzip
Vulnerability : race condition
Problem type : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-2475
BugTraq ID : 14450
Debian Bugs : 321927 343680

The unzip update in DSA 903 contained a regression so that symbolic
links that are resolved later in a zip archive aren't supported
anymore. This update corrects this behaviour. For completeness,
below plese find the original advisory text:

Imran Ghory discovered a race condition in the permissions setting
code in unzip. When decompressing a file in a directory an
attacker has access to, unzip could be tricked to set the file
permissions to a different file the user has permissions to.

For the old stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.50-1woody5.

For the stable distribution (sarge) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.52-1sarge3.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 5.52-6.

We recommend that you upgrade your unzip package.
