[Cucumber-linux-security] unzip (security update is available)

[Scott C. <sc...@cu...>]

  Update Information

A security update is available for unzip for the following versions of
Cucumber Linux:

  * 1.0
  * 1.1 Beta

Here are the details from the Cucumber 1.0 changelog:

+----------------+
Fri Feb 16 10:11:36 EST 2018
apps-base/unzip rebuilt (build 3) to mitigate against CVE-2018-1000035, a
	security vulnerability which allowed for an attacker to perform a denial
	of service and arbitrary code execution via a specially crafted zip     
	file. Unzip has been rebuilt with the -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2, which 
	mitigates the impact of the vulnerability to only a denial of service
	(removing the possibility of arbitrary code execution). For more      
	information see:
