Discussion

libzip Multiple Buffer Overflow Vulnerabilities

libzip is prone to multiple buffer-overflow vulnerabilities because it fails to properly bounds check user-supplied data.

An attacker can exploit these issues to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition.

libzip versions prior to 0.10.1 are vulnerable.
