| <affected> |
| <package name="app-arch/zoo" auto="yes" arch="*"> |
| <unaffected range="ge">2.10-r2</unaffected> |

| <background> |
| <p> |
| zoo is a file archiving utility for maintaining collections of |
| files, written by Rahul Dhesi. |
| </p> |
| </background> |
| <description> |
| <p> |
| zoo is vulnerable to a new buffer overflow due to insecure use of |
| the strcpy() function when trying to create an archive from certain |
| directories or filenames. |
| </p> |
| </description> |
| <impact type="normal"> |
| <p> |
| An attacker could exploit this issue by enticing a user to create |
| a zoo archive of specially crafted directories and filenames, possibly |
| leading to the execution of arbitrary code with the rights of the user |
| running zoo. |
| </p> |
| </impact> |
| <workaround> |
| <p> |
| There is no known workaround at this time. |
| </p> |
| </workaround> |
| <resolution> |
| <p> |
| All zoo users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| </p> |
| <code> |
| # emerge --sync |
| # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-arch/zoo-2.10-r2"</code> |
| </resolution> |
