arr-pm 0.0.11
arr-pm vulnerable to arbitrary shell execution when extracting or listing files contained in a malicious rpm
high severity CVE-2022-39224>= 0.0.12
Impact
Arbitrary shell execution is possible when using RPM::File#files and RPM::File#extract if the RPM contains a malicious "payload compressor" field.
This vulnerability impacts the extract and files methods of the
RPM::File class in the affected versions of this library.
Patches
Version 0.0.12 is available with a fix for these issues.
Workarounds
When using an affected version of this library (arr-pm), ensure any RPMs being processed contain valid/known payload compressor values. Such values include: gzip, bzip2, xz, zstd, and lzma.
You can check the payload compressor field in an rpm by using the rpm command line tool. For example:
% rpm -qp example-1.0-1.x86_64.rpm --qf "%{PAYLOADCOMPRESSOR}\n"
gzip
Impact on known dependent projects
This library is used by fpm. The
vulnerability may impact fpm only when using the flag -s rpm or
--input-type rpm to convert a malicious rpm to another format. It does
not impact creating rpms.
