In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes. Details follow: Jim Meyering discovered that tar did not properly verify the validity of certain header fields in a GNU tar archive. By tricking an user into processing a specially crafted tar archive, this could be exploited to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user. The tar version in Ubuntu 4.10 is not affected by this vulnerability.
