The following packages have been updated for the Cygwin distribution:

* libarchive13-3.1.2-3
* libarchive-devel-3.1.2-3
* bsdcpio-3.1.2-3
* bsdtar-3.1.2-3

Libarchive is a programming library that can create and read several
different streaming archive formats, including most popular tar
variants, several cpio formats, and both BSD and GNU ar variants. It can
also write shar archives and read ISO9660 CDROM images and ZIP archives.
The bsdtar program is an implementation of tar(1) that is built on top
of libarchive. It started as a test harness, but has grown into a
feature-competitive replacement for GNU tar.

This release includes fixes for two security issues:
