dpkg-source in dpkg 1.3.0 through 1.18.23 is able to use a non-GNU patch
program and does not offer a protection mechanism for blank-indented diff
hunks, which allows remote attackers to conduct directory traversal attacks
via a crafted Debian source package, as demonstrated by use of dpkg-source
on NetBSD.

| mdeslaur | This only affects operating systems that don’t use GNU patch by default, which isn’t the case on Debian/Ubuntu. Setting priority to negligible. |
