+Subject: [PATCH] libelf: Fix dir traversal vuln in ar extraction.
+
+Upstream-Status: Backport
+
+read_long_names terminates names at the first '/' found but then skips
+one character without checking (it's supposed to be '\n'). Hence the
+next name could start with any character including '/'. This leads to
+a directory traversal vulnerability at the time the contents of the
+archive is extracted.
+
+The danger is mitigated by the fact that only one '/' is possible in a
+resulting filename and only in the leading position. Hence only files
+in the root directory can be written via this vuln and only when ar is
+executed as root.
+
+The fix for the vuln is to not skip any characters while looking
+for '/'.
