Title:
Errors when extracting ZIP files. It can not differentiate between
files and directories
Status in libarchive package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in libarchive source package in Bionic:
Fix Released
Bug description:
* Impact
The bionic version has a known problem when reading file entries in ZIP
files, where it incorrectly identifies directories and files entries.
* Test case
$ wget
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libarchive/+bug/1830629/+attachment/5268728/+files/example.zip
$ bsdtar -vxf example.zip
$ ls -l
The 'ABCD_1234' and 'empty' entries should be directories
* Regression potential
Check that extracting zips from bsdtar or nautilus work without issue
--------------------------------
It has been confirmed that the previous and following versions
(3.3.1+) do not have this problem and the library handles the ZIP
files correctly.
Is it possible to include a newer version of libarchive (3.3.1+) in
Bionic?
This problem is seriously affecting some of our systems.
