Hello,

We found some out-of-bands reads in tar clients: GNU Tar and  BSD Tar
(libarchive 3.1.2). These vulnerabilities can be triggered performing
a list operation of the compressed files inside an archive. Find
attached a single test case that exposes both vulnerabilities. They
can be easily detected using valgrind:


$ valgrind bsdtar -tvf oob-access.tar

Fortunately the last revisions of GNU Tar and libarchive fixed these
issues. Do we have CVE for these issues?

Gustavo.
