Package: cpl-plugin-amber-calib
Version: 4.4.0+dfsg-2
Severity: grave
Tags: security
X-Debbugs-Cc: Debian Security Team <t...@security.debian.org>

The maintainer script of cpl-plugin-amber-calib has this code:

https://sources.debian.org/src/cpl-plugin-amber/4.4.0+dfsg-2/debian/cpl-plugin-calib.postinst.in/#L23
|       wget -O- ${URL} | \
|           tar xzO ${TAR} | \
|           tar xzC ${TARGETDIR} ${COMPONENTS} --strip-components=1

The URL is an unencrypted ftp:// URL. A malicious remote could easily
replace the requested archive and supply a different version. Such a
replacement could include a setuid root binary for instance. Once
installed, a local user can use it for a local privilege escalation.

I guess that this is not the only cpl plugin affected by this kind of
vulnerability.
