This behaviour is triggered when the option 'Keep directory structure' is selected from the application 'Extract' dialog. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Jul 8 2013 Matthias Clasen <mclasen@redhat.com> - 3.6.4-1 - Update to 3.6.4 * Thu Jan 17 2013 Tomas Bzatek <tbzatek@redhat.com> - 3.6.3-2 - Rebuilt for new libarchive -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #981471 - CVE-2013-4668 file-roller: path sanitization errors https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=981471 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
