CVE-2019-10743 Information

Description

All versions of archiver allow attacker to perform a Zip Slip attack via the \unarchive\ functions. It is exploited using a specially crafted zip archive that holds path traversal filenames. When exploited a filename in a malicious archive is concatenated to the target extraction directory which results in the final path ending up outside of the target folder. For instance a zip may hold a file with a ../../file.exe\ location and thus break out of the target folder. If an executable or a configuration file is overwritten with a file containing malicious code the problem can turn into an arbitrary code execution issue quite easily.
