Description Vasyl Kaigorodov 2015-02-26 16:26:54 UTC

It was reported [1] that ARJ crashes on a crafted ARJ file:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=774015

This is actually a security issue, as the invalid pointer in that
free is due to a buffer overflow write access initiated by a size
read from the processed archive.
