PAX extended headers. By tricking a user into processing a specially
crafted tar archive, this could be exploited to execute arbitrary
code with the privileges of the user.
Security: CVE-2006-0300
Approved by: portmgr (erwin)
Obtained from: Ubuntu
Notable changes in this release:
- Support for POSIX.1-2001 and ustar archive formats.
- Various option flag changes.
- New message translations.
- Bug fixes.
Merge all applicable bugfixes, local hacks and new features from the ancient
base system tar into the port, so those two are interchangeable.
Bump PORTREVISION.
- switch devel/gettext (0.11.1) on, installing full package
- flip devel/gettext-old (0.10.35) to installing only static binaries
with a "-old" suffix -- gettext-old will have its deorbit burn
sequence initiated just after 4.6-RELEASE
- fix up ports for the new world order
Reviewed by: portmgr
* New option --overwrite-dir.
* Fixes for buffer overrun, porting, and copyright notice problems.
* Add Korean message catalog.
Fixes:
* Don't pick up spurious iconv dependency.
* Remove home page from pkg-descr. It provides little but
historical information, and links to an outdated version of the
GNU tar manuals, a current version of which ships with the port.
