NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream borgbackup package and not the borgbackup package as distributed by Ubuntu.

Borg (aka BorgBackup) before 1.0.9 has a flaw in the way duplicate archive names were processed during manifest recovery, potentially allowing an attacker to overwrite an archive.
