Summary
It was discovered that dpkg-deb does not properly sanitize directory permissions when extracting a control member into a temporary directory, which is
documented as being a safe operation even on untrusted data. This may result in leaving temporary files behind on cleanup. Given automated and repeated execution of dpkg-deb commands on
adversarial .deb packages or with well compressible files, placed
inside a directory with permissions not allowing removal by a non-root
user, this can end up in a DoS scenario due to causing disk quota
exhaustion or disk full conditions.

- directory traversal
Summary
Dpkg::Source::Archive in dpkg, the Debian package management system, before version 1.21.8, 1.20.10, 1.19.8, 1.18.26 is prone to a directory traversal vulnerability. When extracting untrusted source packages in v2 and v3 source package formats that include a debian.tar, the in-place extraction can lead to directory traversal situations on specially crafted orig.tar and debian.tar tarballs.
