Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-071 advisory.

    An improper link resolution flaw can occur while extracting an archive leading to changing modes, times,     access control lists, and flags of a file outside of the archive. An attacker may provide a malicious     archive to a victim user, who would trigger this flaw when trying to extract the archive. A local attacker     may use this flaw to gain more privileges in a system. (CVE-2021-31566)

    A use-after-free flaw was found in libarchive in the copy_string function. (CVE-2021-36976)

    An out-of-bounds read flaw was found in libarchive. This flaw allows an attacker who can supply a     specially crafted zip file to libarchive to cause an out-of-bounds read in programs linked with     libarchive, using the LZMA zip functionality. The consequences depend on the specific program linked with     libarchive. Still, they would most likely result in an application crash or information disclosure that     could be used in conjunction with another exploit. (CVE-2022-26280)
