I have the image, how can I get it to you privately to test? (Or alternatively, I can test it with the new version if you have a link?)

GNU Cpio also works. It looks like 1.28 adds an env var to override this behavior: libarchive: do not extract unsafe symlinks unless $EXTRACT_UNSAFE_SYMLINKS=1 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/busybox/+bug/1753572/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
