Summary

The Archive::Zip module allows a Perl program to create, manipulate,

read, and write Zip archive files.

Zip archives can be created, or you can read from existing zip files.

Once created, they can be written to files, streams, or strings.

Members can be added, removed, extracted, replaced, rearranged, and

enumerated. They can also be renamed or have their dates, comments,

or other attributes queried or modified. Their data can be compressed

or uncompressed as needed. Members can be created from members in

existing Zip files, or from existing directories, files, or strings.

This release fixes a directory and symbolic link traversal vulnerability in

Archive::Zip::Archive Perl module that allows an attacker to writite into an

arbitrary file accesible by a local user.
