{"id":"AZL-63777","summary":"CVE-2025-5917 affecting package libarchive for versions less than 3.7.7-3","details":"A vulnerability has been identified in the libarchive library. This flaw involves an 'off-by-one' miscalculation when handling prefixes and suffixes for file names. This can lead to a 1-byte write overflow. While seemingly small, such an overflow can corrupt adjacent memory, leading to unpredictable program behavior, crashes, or in specific circumstances, could be leveraged as a building block for more sophisticated exploitation. This bug affects libarchive versions prior to 3.8.0.","modified":"2026-04-01T05:20:13.011325Z","published":"2025-06-09T20:15:27Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-5917"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-5917"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"libarchive","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/libarchive"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"3.7.7-3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-63777.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
