Squashfs-Tools is an open source package. version 4.5 of Squashfs-Tools contains a security vulnerability that stems from the squashfs_opendir function in unsquash-1.c in the software that is responsible for storing the filenames in directory entries, which is then used by unsquashfs to create new files during unsquash during unsquash to create new files.
