The archive_string_append function in archive_string.c in libarchive before 3.2.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted cab files, related to "overlapping memcpy."

According to the versions of the libarchive package installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

This attack appears to be exploitable     via the victim opening a specially crafted ISO9660     file.(CVE-2019-1000020)

  - libarchive version commit     bf9aec176c6748f0ee7a678c5f9f9555b9a757c1 onwards     (release v3.0.2 onwards) contains a CWE-125:
    Out-of-bounds Read vulnerability in 7zip decompression,     archive_read_support_format_7zip.c, header_bytes() that     can result in a crash (denial of service). This attack     appears to be exploitable via the victim opening a     specially crafted 7zip file.(CVE-2019-1000019)

  - The archive_string_append function in archive_string.c     in libarchive before 3.2.0 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted cab     files, related to 'overlapping memcpy.'(CVE-2015-8918)

  - read_header in archive_read_support_format_rar.c in     libarchive 3.3.2 suffers from an off-by-one error for     UTF-16 names in RAR archives, leading to an     out-of-bounds read in     archive_read_format_rar_read_header.(CVE-2017-14502)

  - An error in the lha_read_file_header_1() function     (archive_read_support_format_lha.c) in libarchive 3.2.2     allows remote attackers to trigger an out-of-bounds     read memory access and subsequently cause a crash via a     specially crafted archive.(CVE-2017-5601)

  - The read_Header function in     archive_read_support_format_7zip.c in libarchive 3.2.1     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (out-of-bounds read) via multiple EmptyStream     attributes in a header in a 7zip     archive.(CVE-2016-8689)

  - libarchive 3.3.2 suffers from an out-of-bounds read     within lha_read_data_none() in     archive_read_support_format_lha.c when extracting a     specially crafted lha archive, related to     lha_crc16.(CVE-2017-14503)

  - An out-of-bounds read flaw exists in parse_file_info in     archive_read_support_format_iso9660.c in libarchive     3.3.2 when extracting a specially crafted iso9660 iso     file, related to     archive_read_format_iso9660_read_header.(CVE-2017-14501     )

  - libarchive 3.3.2 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (xml_data heap-based buffer over-read     and application crash) via a crafted xar archive,     related to the mishandling of empty strings in the     atol8 function in     archive_read_support_format_xar.c.(CVE-2017-14166)

  - The mtree bidder in libarchive 3.2.1 does not keep     track of line sizes when extending the read-ahead,     which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (crash) via a crafted file, which triggers an     invalid read in the (1) detect_form or (2) bid_entry     function in     libarchive/archive_read_support_format_mtree.c.(CVE-201     6-8688)

  - The archive_read_format_cab_read_header function in     archive_read_support_format_cab.c in libarchive 3.2.2     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) via     a crafted file.(CVE-2016-10350)

  - The archive_le32dec function in archive_endian.h in     libarchive 3.2.2 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and     application crash) via a crafted file.(CVE-2016-10349)

  - The archive_wstring_append_from_mbs function in     archive_string.c in libarchive 3.2.2 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer     dereference and application crash) via a crafted     archive file.(CVE-2016-10209)

  - Integer overflow in the archive_read_format_tar_skip     function in archive_read_support_format_tar.c in     libarchive before 3.2.0 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted tar     file.(CVE-2015-8933)

  - bsdcpio in libarchive before 3.2.0 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (invalid read     and crash) via crafted cpio file.(CVE-2015-8915)

  - Absolute path traversal vulnerability in bsdcpio in     libarchive 3.1.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to     write to arbitrary files via a full pathname in an     archive.(CVE-2015-2304)

  - archive_read_format_rar_read_data in     archive_read_support_format_rar.c in libarchive before     3.4.0 has a use-after-free in a certain ARCHIVE_FAILED     situation, related to     Ppmd7_DecodeSymbol.(CVE-2019-18408)
