copyout.c:300

 char ascii_header[112];
...
      sprintf (ascii_header,

"%6s%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx%08lx",
               magic_string,
               file_hdr->c_ino, file_hdr->c_mode, file_hdr->c_uid,
               file_hdr->c_gid, file_hdr->c_nlink, file_hdr->c_mtime,
file_hdr->c_filesize, file_hdr->c_dev_maj, file_hdr->c_dev_min, file_hdr->c_rdev_maj, file_hdr->c_rdev_min, file_hdr->c_namesize,
               file_hdr->c_chksum);

...

Cpio assumes the filesize is at most 8 digits in size and that's not.
If it's more, this buffer will indeed overflow.
