  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted RAR file could cause the application to read     memory beyond the end of the decompression     buffer.(CVE-2015-8934)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive's handling of     7zip data. A specially crafted 7zip file can cause a     integer overflow resulting in memory corruption that     can lead to code execution.(CVE-2016-4300)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted 7Z file could trigger a NULL pointer     dereference, causing the application to     crash.(CVE-2015-8922)

  - Undefined behavior (signed integer overflow) was     discovered in libarchive, in the ISO parser. A crafted     file could potentially cause denial of     service.(CVE-2016-5844)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted AR archive could cause the application to read     a single byte of application memory, potentially     disclosing it to the attacker.(CVE-2015-8920)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted mtree file could cause libarchive to read     beyond a statically declared structure, potentially     disclosing application memory.(CVE-2015-8921)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted LZA/LZH file could cause a small out-of-bounds     read, potentially disclosing a few bytes of application     memory.(CVE-2015-8919)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted ISO file could cause the application to consume     resources until it hit a memory limit, leading to a     crash or denial of service.(CVE-2015-8930)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted TAR file could trigger an out-of-bounds read,     potentially causing the application to disclose a small     amount of application memory.(CVE-2015-8924)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted MTREE file could cause a limited out-of-bounds     read, potentially disclosing contents of application     memory.(CVE-2015-8928)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted CAB file could cause the application     dereference a NULL pointer, leading to a     crash.(CVE-2015-8917)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted RAR file could cause the application     dereference a NULL pointer, leading to a     crash.(CVE-2015-8916)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive's handling of     RAR archives. A specially crafted RAR file can cause a     heap overflow, potentially leading to code execution in     the context of the application.(CVE-2016-4302)

  - Undefined behavior (invalid left shift) was discovered     in libarchive, in how Compress streams are identified.

  - Integer signedness error in the archive_write_zip_data     function in archive_write_set_format_zip.c in     libarchive 3.1.2 and earlier, when running on 64-bit     machines, allows context-dependent attackers to cause a     denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors,     which triggers an improper conversion between unsigned     and signed types, leading to a buffer     overflow.(CVE-2013-0211)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted zip file can provide an incorrect compressed     size, which may allow an attacker to place arbitrary     code on the heap and execute it in the context of the     application.(CVE-2016-1541)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted cpio archive containing a symbolic link to a     ridiculously large target path can cause memory     allocation to fail, resulting in any attempt to view or     extract the archive crashing.(CVE-2016-4809)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted ZIP file could cause a few bytes of application     memory in a 256-byte region to be     disclosed.(CVE-2015-8923)

  - A vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially     crafted RAR file could cause the application to     disclose a 128k block of memory from an uncontrolled     location.(CVE-2015-8926)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

A flaw was found in the way libarchive handled hardlink archive entries of non-zero size. Combined with flaws in libarchive's file system sandboxing, this issue could cause an application using libarchive to overwrite arbitrary files with arbitrary data from the archive. (CVE-2016-5418)

Multiple out-of-bounds write flaws were found in libarchive. Specially crafted ZIP, 7ZIP, or RAR files could cause a heap overflow, potentially allowing code execution in the context of the application using libarchive. (CVE-2016-1541 , CVE-2016-4300 , CVE-2016-4302)

Multiple out-of-bounds read flaws were found in libarchive. Specially crafted LZA/LZH, AR, MTREE, ZIP, TAR, or RAR files could cause the application to read data out of bounds, potentially disclosing a small amount of application memory, or causing an application crash.
(CVE-2015-8919 , CVE-2015-8920 , CVE-2015-8921 , CVE-2015-8923 , CVE-2015-8924 , CVE-2015-8925 , CVE-2015-8926 , CVE-2015-8928 , CVE-2015-8934)

Multiple NULL pointer dereference flaws were found in libarchive.
Specially crafted RAR, CAB, or 7ZIP files could cause an application using libarchive to crash. (CVE-2015-8916 , CVE-2015-8917 , CVE-2015-8922)

Multiple infinite loop / resource exhaustion flaws were found in libarchive. Specially crafted GZIP or ISO files could cause the application to consume an excessive amount of resources, eventually leading to a crash on memory exhaustion. (CVE-2016-7166 , CVE-2015-8930)

A denial of service vulnerability was found in libarchive. A specially crafted CPIO archive containing a symbolic link to a large target path could cause memory allocation to fail, causing an application using libarchive that attempted to view or extract such archive to crash.
(CVE-2016-4809)

An integer overflow flaw, leading to a buffer overflow, was found in libarchive's construction of ISO9660 volumes. Attempting to create an ISO9660 volume with 2 GB or 4 GB file names could cause the application to attempt to allocate 20 GB of memory. If this were to succeed, it could lead to an out of bounds write on the heap and potential code execution. (CVE-2016-6250)

Multiple instances of undefined behavior due to arithmetic overflow were found in libarchive. Specially crafted MTREE archives, Compress streams, or ISO9660 volumes could potentially cause the application to fail to read the archive, or to crash. (CVE-2015-8931 , CVE-2015-8932 , CVE-2016-5844)
