CVE-2007-0264: Buffer Overflow

First published: Tue Jan 16 2007(Updated: )

Buffer overflow in Winzip32.exe in WinZip 9.0 allows local users to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long command line argument. NOTE: this issue may cross privilege boundaries if an application automatically invokes Winzip32.exe for untrusted input filenames, as in the case of a file upload application. NOTE: The provenance of this information is unknown; the details are obtained solely from third party information.
