(Ruby Archive::Tar::Minitar: Directory traversal)
Michal Marek discovered that Ruby Archive::Tar::Minitar is vulnerable to
a directory traversal vulnerability.
Impact :
A remote attacker could entice a user or an automated system to process
a specially crafted archive using Ruby Archive::Tar::Minitar possibly
allowing the writing of arbitrary files with the privileges of the
process.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.");
