Synopsis:          Low: unzip security and bug fix update
Issue date:        2007-05-01
CVE Names:         CVE-2005-2475 CVE-2005-4667

A race condition was found in Unzip. Local users could use this flaw to
modify permissions of arbitrary files via a hard link attack on a file
while it was being decompressed (CVE-2005-2475)

A buffer overflow was found in Unzip command line argument handling.
If a user could be tricked into running Unzip with a specially crafted long
file name, an attacker could execute arbitrary code with that user's
privileges. (CVE-2005-4667)
