Summary

Updated gcab packages fix security vulnerability

Details

It was discovered that gcab is prone to a stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability when extracting .cab files. An attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a denial-of-service or, potentially the execution of arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running gcab, if a specially crafted .cab file is processed (CVE-2018-5345).
