A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way tar expanded archive

it could cause the tar executable to crash or execute arbitrary code with
the privileges of the user running tar. (CVE-2010-0624)
Red Hat would like to thank Jakob Lell for responsibly reporting the
CVE-2010-0624 issue.
A denial of service flaw was found in the way tar expanded archive files.
