Description Sam Fowler 2018-04-05 06:47:43 UTC
Openshift Enterprise through version 3.6 has does not properly sanitize archived filenames in source-to-image/pkg/tar/tar.go:ExtractTarStreamFromTarReader(). An attacker can exploit this with a malicous container to overwrite files on client machines when clients use "oc rsync" to connect to that container.

This is a related but separate issue to CVE-2018-1102.
