Summary: Updated unzip package fixes security vulnerabilities

Details: Updated unzip package fix security vulnerabilities: The unzip command line tool is affected by heap-based buffer overflows within the CRC32 verification (CVE-2014-8139), the test_compr_eb() (CVE-2014-8140) and the getZip64Data() (CVE-2014-8141) functions. The input errors may result in arbitrary code execution. A specially crafted zip file, passed to the command unzip -t, can be used to trigger the vulnerability. OOB access (both read and write) issues also exist in test_compr_eb() that can result in application crash or other unspecified impact. A specially crafted zip file, passed to the command unzip -t, can be used to trigger the issues.
