+Fix CVE-2016-1541 (buffer overflow zip_read_mac_metadata)
+
+Taken from upstream source repository:
+https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/commit/d0331e8e5b05b475f20b1f3101fe1ad772d7e7e7
+
+When reading OS X metadata entries in Zip archives that were stored
+without compression, libarchive would use the uncompressed entry size
+to allocate a buffer but would use the compressed entry size to limit
+the amount of data copied into that buffer. Since the compressed
+and uncompressed sizes are provided by data in the archive itself,
+an attacker could manipulate these values to write data beyond
+the end of the allocated buffer.
+
+This fix provides three new checks to guard against such
+manipulation and to make libarchive generally more robust when
+handling this type of entry:
+ 1. If an OS X metadata entry is stored without compression,
+ abort the entire archive if the compressed and uncompressed
+ data sizes do not match.
+ 2. When sanity-checking the size of an OS X metadata entry,
+ abort this entry if either the compressed or uncompressed
+ size is larger than 4MB.
+ 3. When copying data into the allocated buffer, check the copy
+ size against both the compressed entry size and uncompressed
+ entry size.
