CVE-2007-3641

Status Candidate

Overview

archive_read_support_format_tar.c in libarchive before 2.2.4 does not properly compute the length of a certain buffer when processing a malformed pax extension header, which allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) PAX or (2) TAR archive that triggers a buffer overflow.

FreeBSD Security Advisory - Several problems have been found in the libarchive code used to parse the tar and pax interchange formats. These include entering an infinite loop if an archive prematurely ends within a pax extension header or if certain types of corruption occur in pax extension headers, dereferencing a NULL pointer if an archive prematurely ends within a tar header immediately following a pax extension header or if certain other types of corruption occur in pax extension headers, and miscomputing the length of a buffer resulting in a buffer overflow if yet another type of corruption occurs in a pax extension header.
