NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream gnome-autoar-devel package and not the gnome-autoar-devel package as distributed by Rocky-Linux.

autoar-extractor.c in GNOME gnome-autoar before 0.3.1, as used by GNOME Shell, Nautilus, and other software, allows Directory Traversal during extraction because it lacks a check of whether a file's parent is a symlink in certain complex situations. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-36241.
