Title:	Ubuntu: Security Advisory (USN-2549-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'libarchive' package(s) announced via the USN-2549-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'libarchive' package(s) announced via the USN-2549-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that the libarchive bsdcpio utility extracted absolute paths by default without using the --insecure flag, contrary to expectations. If a user or automated system were tricked into extracting cpio archives containing absolute paths, a remote attacker may be able to write to arbitrary files. (CVE-2015-2304) Fabian Yamaguchi discovered that libarchive incorrectly handled certain type conversions. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause libarchive to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. (CVE-2013-0211) Affected Software/OS: 'libarchive' package(s) on Ubuntu 12.04, Ubuntu 14.04, Ubuntu 14.10. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.4 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P
