Description:
ISS X-Force has reported a vulnerability in multiple F-Secure products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the antivirus scanning functionality when processing ARJ archives. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted ARJ archive.
