Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.56297
Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-248-2 (unzip)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to unzip
announced via advisory USN-248-2.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)
Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)
Ubuntu 5.10 (Breezy Badger)

The following packages are affected: unzip

USN-248-1 fixed a vulnerability in unzip. However, that update
inadvertedly changed the field order in the contents listing output,
which broke unzip frontends like file-roller. The updated packages fix
this regression.

Solution:
The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 5.51-2ubuntu0.4 (for Ubuntu 4.10), 5.51-2ubuntu1.4 (for Ubuntu
5.04), or 5.52-3ubuntu2.2 (for Ubuntu 5.10). In general, a standard
system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.
