The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200506-16 (cpio: Directory traversal vulnerability)
A vulnerability has been found in cpio that can potentially allow a cpio archive to extract its files to an arbitrary directory of the creator's choice.
Impact :
An attacker could create a malicious cpio archive which would create files in arbitrary locations on the victim's system. This issue could also be used in conjunction with a previous race condition vulnerability (CAN-2005-1111) to change permissions on files owned by the victim.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
