Freshness: upstream tracker timestamp is available; use API updated time as primary recency signal.
CVE-2012-4024 low priority: Ubuntu including 1 source packages (squashfs-tools), 16 status rows across 16 suites (hardy, lucid, natty, oneiric, precise, quantal, raring, saucy, trusty, upstream, utopic, vivid, wily, xenial, yakkety, zesty): ignored 10, not-affected 3, DNE 2, released 1.
Stack-based buffer overflow in the get_component function in unsquashfs.c in unsquashfs in Squashfs 4.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted list file (aka a crafted file for the -ef option). NOTE: probably in most cases, the list file is a trusted file constructed by the program's user; however, there are some realistic situations in which a list file would be obtained from an untrusted remote source.
