The remote Ubuntu 16.04 LTS / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 20.10 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the USN-4927-1 advisory.

  • fr-archive-libarchive.c in GNOME file-roller through 3.38.0, as used by GNOME Shell and other software, allows Directory Traversal during extraction because it lacks a check of whether a file’s parent is a symlink in certain complex situations. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-11736. (CVE-2020-36314)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
