NVD Description

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

Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 mishandles the overlapping of files inside a ZIP container, leading to denial of service (resource consumption), aka a "better zip bomb" issue.
