The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202105-10 (GNOME Autoar: User-assisted execution of arbitrary code)

    It was discovered that GNOME Autoar could extract files outside of the       intended directory.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted       archive using GNOME Autoar, possibly resulting in execution of arbitrary       code with the privileges of the process or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

According to the version of the gnome-autoar package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

  - autoar-extractor.c in GNOME gnome-autoar before 0.3.1,     as used by GNOME Shell, Nautilus, and other software,     allows Directory Traversal during extraction because it     lacks a check of whether a file's parent is a symlink     in certain complex situations.(CVE-2021-28650)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Ubuntu 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-4937-1 advisory.

    Ondrej Holy discovered that GNOME Autoar could extract files outside of the intended directory. If a user     were tricked into extracting a specially crafted archive, a remote attacker could create files in     arbitrary locations, possibly leading to code execution.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.
