3) Path traversal (CVE-ID: CVE-2001-1267)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform directory traversal attacks.

The vulnerability exists due to input validation error when processing directory traversal sequences. A remote attacker can trick the victim to open a specially crafted archive and overwrite arbitrary files on the system.


4) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48560)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free exists via heappushpop in heapq. A remote attacker can trigger the vulnerability to perform a denial of service attack.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-48564)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability occurs when processing malformed Apple Property List files in binary format. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Cleartext transmission of sensitive information (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-40217)
