Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported a vulnerability in PowerArchiver, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to boundary errors when adding files to a ZIP archive and can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a file is added to a ZIP archive containing a file with an overly long filename.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code, but requires that the user attempts to add a file to the malicious archive.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 9.62.03. Other versions may also be affected.
Do you have this product installed on your home computer? Scan using the free Personal Software Inspector. Check if a vulnerable version is installed on computers in your corporate network, scan using the Network Software Inspector.
