Posted on 02 August 2017
[Suggested description] Buffer overflow in ALZip 8.51 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted DosDevice file. ------------------------------------------ [Additional Information] To reproduce this issue, create a file named "AUX.3.2.1.e.pwned" using normal user CMD via following syntax: type AUX > \.C:ProgramDataAUX.3.2.1.e.PWNED later you will find that AUX.3.2.1.e.PWNED file has created in C:ProgramData folder.
