openSUSE Security Update : file-roller (openSUSE-SU-2013:1281-1)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 75099

Synopsis

The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.

Description

The GNOME file-roller archive tool was updated to fix a path traversal issue while unpacking (CVE-2013-4668). File Roller now sanitizes path names while unpacking, so that a path traversal attack cannot be used to create files outside the unpack destination directory.

Solution

Update the affected file-roller packages.
