Description:
Juan Pablo Lopez Yacubian has discovered a vulnerability in ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in multiscan.exe when processing input from files passed via the "-f" command line parameter. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow by e.g. tricking a user into scanning a file or directory with a specially crafted name via the "Scan with ZoneAlam Anti-virus" shell extension.
Successful exploitation may allow the execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is confirmed in version 7.0.483.000 and 8.0.020.000. Other versions may also be affected.
