"The cpio_safer_name_suffix function in util.c in cpio 2.11 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) via a crafted cpio file." https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2016-2037 Note that there appear to be two versions of this fix. The original patch posted to the bug-cpio mailing list [1] is used by Debian [2], but apparently causes regression [3]. The patch accepted to the upstream git repo [4] seems to be the most complete fix.
