sbt is a build tool for Scala, Java, and others. Given a specially crafted zip or JAR file, IO.unzip
allows writing of arbitrary file. This would have potential to overwrite /root/.ssh/authorized_keys
. Within sbt's main code, IO.unzip
is used in pullRemoteCache
task and Resolvers.remote
; however many projects use IO.unzip(...)
directly to implement custom tasks. This vulnerability has been patched in version 1.9.7.
