PHPConcept PCLTar PCLTar.PHP Remote File Include Vulnerability

PclTar is prone to a remote file-include vulnerability because it fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input.

Exploiting this issue may allow an attacker to compromise applications that use the affected library as well as the underlying system; other attacks are also possible.

NOTE: This vulnerability was originally thought to affect Joomla! directly. Further analysis has revealed that the issue affects the PclTar library. This record has been updated accordingly.
