The Tar program provides the ability to create and manipulate tar + archives. +

+
+ +

It was discovered that GNU Tar had a memory leak when processing archive + headers. +

+
+ +

A remote attacker could entice a user to open a specially crafted + archive using Tar, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service condition. +

+
+ +

There is no known workaround at this time.

+
+ +

All Tar users should upgrade to the latest version:
