Ismael Briones has reported two vulnerabilities in Nod32 Antivirus, which potentially can be exploited by malicious users to gain escalated privileges, or by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to boundary errors when performing actions on a detected file (e.g. "Rename" or "Delete). These can be exploited to cause stack-based buffer overflows when performing certain actions on a detected file with an overly long, specially crafted path name.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 2.70.37.

Solution
Update to version 2.70.39.
