K52697522 : libarchive vulnerability CVE-2016-8689

Security Advisory Description

The read_Header function in archive_read_support_format_7zip.c in libarchive 3.2.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) via multiple EmptyStream attributes in a header in a 7zip archive. (CVE-2016-8689)
Impact
For BIG-IP and VIPRION platforms that are configured to use Virtual Clustered Multiprocessing (vCMP), an authenticated administrator can upload a specially crafted ISO file and use the ISO file to create a vCMP guest virtual machine. A successful attack may cause the bsdtar to stop responding while creating the vCMP guest virtual machine.
