Drupal before 7.58, 8.x before 8.3.9, 8.4.x before 8.4.6, and 8.5.x before 8.5.1 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code because of an issue affecting multiple subsystems with default or common module configurations.
A flaw was found in the ArchiveTar package. PEAR ArchiveTar could allow a local authenticated attacker to bypass security restrictions caused by a stream-wrapper attack. An attacker can overwrite arbitrary files on the system using a specially-crafted tar archive.
