| Summary: A GNU file archiving program. | |
The GNU tar program saves many files together in one archive and can restore individual files (or all of the files) from that archive. Tar can also be used to add supplemental files to an archive and to update or list files in the archive. Tar includes multivolume support, automatic archive compression/decompression, the ability to perform remote archives, and the ability to perform incremental and full backups. If you want to use tar for remote backups, you also need to install the rmt package.

* Fri Sep 07 2007 Nived Gopalan <nived at trustix dot org> 1.16-2tr
- SECURITY Fix: A vulnerability has been reported in GNU tar, caused
due to an input validation error when extracting tar archives. This
can be exploited to extract files to arbitrary locations outside the
specified directory with the permissions of the user running GNU tar
by using the "//.." directory traversal sequence in a specially
crafted tar archive.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the
name CVE-2007-4131 to this issue.
* Tue Nov 28 2006 Nived Gopalan <nived at trustix dot org> 1.16-1tr
- New Upstream
- SECURITY Fix: Teemu Salmela has reported a security issue in GNU tar,
caused due to the "extract_archive()" function in extract.c and the
"extract_mangle()" function in mangle.c still processing the deprecated
"GNUTYPE_NAMES" record type containing symbolic links. This can be
exploited to overwrite arbitrary files.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the
name CVE-2006-6097 to this issue.
