+Description:
+ According to a bug report from Jim Meyering [0], a remote overflow
+ exists in the GNU Tape Archiver (Tar). GNU Tar fails to properly
+ handle PAX extended headers resulting in a buffer overflow. With a
+ specially crafted Tar format archive, an attacker can cause arbitrary
+ command execution when the victim lists the Tar contents or extracts
+ the archive. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project
+ assigned the id CVE-2006-0300 [2] to the problem.
