William Grant discovered that dpkg-source did not safely apply diffs
when unpacking source packages. If a user or an automated system were
tricked into unpacking a specially crafted source package, a remote
attacker could modify files outside the target unpack directory, leading
to a denial of service or potentially gaining access to the system.
