A flaw was found in the Plexus Archiver. While using AbstractUnArchiver for extracting, an archive might lead to arbitrary file creation and possible remote code execution (RCE). Extracting an archive with an entry in the destination directory as a symbolic link whose target does not exist will bypass the directory destination verification.
