Description Zombie Ryushu 2020-12-04 01:50:10 CET 
Missing input validation in the ar/tar implementations of APT before version 2.1.2 could result in denial of service when processing specially crafted deb files.
Comment 1 Zombie Ryushu 2020-12-04 01:50:58 CET 
In the context of Mageia, this probably applies to the use of the Alien utilities to convert Closed Source Debs to RPMs.

CVE: (none) => CVE-2020-3810

Comment 2 David Walser 2020-12-04 02:56:53 CET
