The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200405-02 (Multiple vulnerabilities in LHa)

Ulf Harnhammar found two stack overflows and two directory traversal     vulnerabilities in LHa version 1.14 and 1.17. A stack overflow occurs when     testing or extracting archives containing long file or directory names.
Furthermore, LHa doesn't contain sufficient protection against relative or     absolute archive paths.

Impact :

The stack overflows can be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the     rights of the user testing or extracting the archive. The directory     traversal vulnerabilities can be used to overwrite files in the filesystem     with the rights of the user extracting the archive, potentially leading to     denial of service or privilege escalation. Since LHa is often interfaced to     other software like an email virus scanner, this attack can be used     remotely.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time. All users are advised to upgrade     to the latest available version of LHa.
