CVE-2018-11762 tika: Zip Slip vulnerability in tika-app
Last modified: 2018-10-04 05:37:57 EDT
A flaw was found in Apache Tika 0.9 to 1.18, in a rare edge case where a user does not specify an extract directory on the commandline (--extract-dir=) and the input file has an embedded file with an absolute path, such as "C:/evil.bat", tika-app would overwrite that file.

Created tika tracking bugs for this issue: Affects: fedora-all [bug 1632470]
Upstream bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-2687 Upstream commits: https://github.com/apache/tika/commit/a09d853dbed712f644e274b497cce254f3189d57 https://github.com/apache/tika/commit/5c78eb78893fa077a4e58be4484eab4717667d52
The tika packages as shipped as part of the Eclipse collections do not include tika-app and are therefore unaffected by this issue.
