Description
The issue allows Directory Traversal during extraction due to a lack of check on whether a file's parent is a symlink to a directory outside of the intended extraction location. This is caused by an incorrect restriction of the path name to a directory with limited access in the fr-archive-libarchive.c component. Exploitation of this issue may allow an attacker to impact the integrity and availability of protected information.
