Stack-based buffer overflow in ESTsoft ALZip 8.51 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted MS-DOS device file, as demonstrated by use of "AUX" as the initial substring of a filename.
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
