+Subject: [PATCH] xzgrep: Fix escaping of malicious filenames (ZDI-CAN-16587).
+
+Malicious filenames can make xzgrep to write to arbitrary files
+or (with a GNU sed extension) lead to arbitrary code execution.
+
+xzgrep from XZ Utils versions up to and including 5.2.5 are
+affected. 5.3.1alpha and 5.3.2alpha are affected as well.
+This patch works for all of them.
+
+This bug was inherited from gzip's zgrep. gzip 1.12 includes
+a fix for zgrep.
+
+The issue with the old sed script is that with multiple newlines,
+the N-command will read the second line of input, then the
+s-commands will be skipped because it's not the end of the
+file yet, then a new sed cycle starts and the pattern space
+is printed and emptied. So only the last line or two get escaped.
+
+One way to fix this would be to read all lines into the pattern
+space first. However, the included fix is even simpler: All lines
+except the last line get a backslash appended at the end. To ensure
+that shell command substitution doesn't eat a possible trailing
+newline, a colon is appended to the filename before escaping.
+The colon is later used to separate the filename from the grep
+output so it is fine to add it here instead of a few lines later.
+
+The old code also wasn't POSIX compliant as it used \n in the
+replacement section of the s-command. Using \<newline> is the
+POSIX compatible method.
+
+LC_ALL=C was added to the two critical sed commands. POSIX sed
+manual recommends it when using sed to manipulate pathnames
+because in other locales invalid multibyte sequences might
+cause issues with some sed implementations. In case of GNU sed,
+these particular sed scripts wouldn't have such problems but some
+other scripts could have, see:
+
+    info '(sed)Locale Considerations'
+
+This vulnerability was discovered by:
+cleemy desu wayo working with Trend Micro Zero Day Initiative
+
+Thanks to Jim Meyering and Paul Eggert discussing the different
+ways to fix this and for coordinating the patch release schedule
+with gzip.
