 Package : cpio
 Date    : December 23, 2005
 Affected: 10.2, 2006.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 A buffer overflow in cpio 2.6 on 64-bit platforms could allow a local
 user to create a DoS (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code when
 creating a cpio archive with a file whose size is represented by more
 than 8 digits.
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these problems.
