Description:
Tan Chew Keong has reported a vulnerability in EF Commander, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a user's system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing ISO files containing long pathnames. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow via a specially crafted ISO file containing a file within several nested directories.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is reported in version 5.75. Other versions may also be affected.
