CVE-2012-1163 libzip: integer overflow when processing malformed zip file
Last modified: 2016-03-04 07:07:30 EST
An integer overflow vulnerability was reported in libzip <= 0.10 when processing certain corrupt zip files. When libzip opens a zip file, it reads in the size and the offset of the central directory structure and, while it performs a consistency check on these values, it does not anticipate an integer overflow. In this case libzip will continue to process the zip file, which may result in the improper restrictions of operations within the bounds of a memory buffer. Acknowledgements: Red Hat would like to thank Timo Warns for reporting this issue.
