Hello gnu.org,

I am investigating various CVE's against the CBL-Mariner distribution.  NIST 
(and subsequently our tooling) suggests that this CVE is active against all 
versions of cpio:  https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2010-4226.  The 
associated CVE description also suggests that this vulnerability only occurs by 
the way cpio is used, but does not list an exploit or provide any explanation 
suggesting what that might be.

I am curious as to what gnu.org's official position is on this CVE.  Looking 
through the cpio changelog it does not appear to be addressed.

Sincerely
Jon Slobodzian
