Astra Linux – Vulnerability in grub2

A flaw was discovered in grub2. When reading tar files, grub2 allocates an internal buffer for the file name. However, it fails to properly verify the allocation against possible integer overflows. It’s possible to cause the allocation length to overflow with a specially crafted tar file, resulti...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Cpio

In all versions of cpio before 2.13, input files are not properly validated when generating TAR archives. When cpio is used to create TAR archives from paths that attackers can access, the resulting archive may contain files with permissions that the attacker does not have, or in paths to which t...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in tar

A flaw was discovered in the src/list.c file of tar 1.33 and earlier. This flaw allows an attacker who can submit a crafted input file to tar to cause uncontrolled consumption of memory. The greatest threat posed by this vulnerability is to system availability...
