+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #313333 +++

CVE-2010-0624 (http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm?cvename=CVE-2010-0624):
  Heap-based buffer overflow in the rmt_read__ function in
  lib/rtapelib.c in the rmt client functionality in GNU tar before 1.23
  and GNU cpio before 2.11 allows remote rmt servers to cause a denial
  of service (memory corruption) or possibly execute arbitrary code by
  sending more data than was requested, related to archive filenames
  that contain a : (colon) character.
