Hewlett Packard · Dotnetzip · CVE-2018-1002205
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
DotNetZip.Semvered versions prior to 1.11.0
Description:
The issue allows attackers to perform directory traversal, enabling them to write to arbitrary files. This is achieved by including a ../ (dot dot slash) in a Zip archive entry, which is mishandled during extraction. The issue is also referred to as 'Zip-Slip'.
Recommendations:
For versions prior to 1.11.0, update to version 1.11.0 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider validating and sanitizing Zip archive entries to prevent the inclusion of ../ (dot dot slash) sequences during extraction.
