An update of the libarchive package has been released.

Multiple security vulnerabilities were found in libarchive, a multi-format archive and compression library. Heap-based buffer over-reads, NULL pointer dereferences and out-of-bounds reads allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via specially crafted archive files.

For Debian 8 'Jessie', these problems have been fixed in version 3.1.2-11+deb8u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your libarchive packages.
