Description
Stack-based buffer overflow in the zfile_gunzip function in zfile.c in WinUAE 1.4.4 and earlier allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename in a gzipped archive, such as a (1) gz, (2) adz, (3) roz, or (4) hdz archive in a compressed floppy disk image.
Public exploits
Exploit or proof-of-concept code for this vulnerability is publicly available, which lowers the bar for attackers. Treat it as a reason to patch sooner.
Third-party code, not reviewed by us. Public PoCs are sometimes fake or contain malware. Read the code first and run it only in an isolated lab, against systems you are authorised to test.
