CVE-2021-32841: Path traversal in SharpZipLib
SharpZipLib (or #ziplib) is a Zip, GZip, Tar and BZip2 library. A check was added if the destination file is under destination directory. However, it is not enforced that destDir ends with slash. If the destDir is not slash terminated like /home/user/dir it is possible to create a file with a name thats begins with the destination directory, i.e. /home/user/dir.sh. Because of the file name and destination directory constraints, the arbitrary file creation impact is limited and depends on the use case. contains a patch for this vulnerability.
