Directory Traversal

binwalk is a Firmware analysis tool

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Directory Traversal in the extractor() function in plugins/unpfs.py, which allows an attacker to extract files at arbitrary locations when binwalk is run in extraction mode (with the -e option). Remote code execution can be achieved by building a PFS filesystem that extracts a malicious binwalk module into the folder .config/binwalk/plugins.
