GNU tar 1.16 and 1.15.1, and possibly other versions, allows user-assisted
attackers to overwrite arbitrary files via a tar file that contains a
GNUTYPE_NAMES record with a symbolic link, which is not properly handled by
the extract_archive function in extract.c and extract_mangle function in
mangle.c, a variant of CVE-2002-1216.
