Hi!

bsdcpio tool from libarchive bundle is susceptible to a directory traversal
vulnerability via absolute paths.

Initial discussion:
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2015/01/07/5

Upstream report:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/libarchive-discuss/dN9y1VvE1Qk/Z9uerigjQn0J

My proposed (minimal) fix (non-Windows):
https://groups.google.com/group/libarchive-discuss/attach/a78932ecb50340ae/0001-Quick-n-dirty-fix-for-bsdcpio-directory-traversal-vu.patch?part=0.1

Discussion is ongoing.

Could CVE(s) please be assigned?

This seems to have fallen through the cracks, explicitly adding cve-assign
to CC.

Now released as DSA 3180.

Cheers,
        Moritz
