Fix Path Traversal in MHolt Archiver
dependabot security alert. It isn't sure if favirecon is affected (not likely because the import is indirect).
Dependabot can't find a published or compatible non-vulnerable version for https://github.com/mholt/archiver
All versions of archiver allow attacker to perform a Zip Slip attack via the "unarchive" functions. It is exploited using a specially crafted zip archive, that holds path traversal filenames. When exploited, a filename in a malicious archive is concatenated to the target extraction directory, which results in the final path ending up outside of the target folder. For instance, a zip may hold a file with a "../../file.exe" location and thus break out of the target folder. If an executable or a configuration file is overwritten with a file containing malicious code, the problem can turn into an arbitrary code execution issue quite easily.
Affected versions: >= 3.0.0, < 3.3.2
Patched version: 3.3.2
