Summary
Security update for xar
Details

This update for xar fixes the following issues:

Changes in xar:

  • Switch to the maintained Apple xar lineage (build 503, versioned 1.8.0.0.503): the mackyle 1.6.1 fork this package tracked has been dead since 2012, and Debian, Fedora and Gentoo all moved to Apple's xar (apple-oss-distributions/xar). This resolves the long-standing NULL-pointer dereferences in xar_get_path() and xar_unserialize() when parsing malformed archives:
    • CVE-2017-11124 (boo#1047875)
    • CVE-2017-11125 (boo#1047874)
    • CVE-2018-17093 (boo#1108595)
    • CVE-2018-17094 (boo#1108596)
