CVE-2019-14866

It is possible for an attacker to create a file so when backed up with
cpio can generate arbitrary files in the resulting tar archive. When
the backup is restored the file is then created with arbitrary
permissions.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', this problem has been fixed in version
2.11+dfsg-4.1+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your cpio packages.

block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted
to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without
introducing additional issues.");
