CVE-2004-0935


TITLE

Anti-virus software may not properly scan malformed zip archives

Trust: 0.8

sources: CERT/CC: VU#968818

DESCRIPTION

Eset Anti-Virus before 1.020 (16th September 2004) allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system. Anti-virus software may rely on corrupted headers to determine if a zip archive is valid. As a result, anti-virus software may fail to detect malicious content within a zip archive. Multiple Vendor Antivirus applications are reported vulnerable to a zip file detection evasion vulnerability. This vulnerability may allow maliciously crafted zip files to avoid being scanned and detected. The malicious archive can bypass the protection provided by a vulnerable antivirus program, giving users a false sense of security. If the user opens and executes the file, this attack can result in a malicious code infection. This issue is reported to affected products offered by McAfee, Computer Associates, Kaspersky, Sophos, Eset and RAV. Latest antivirus products by Symantec, Bitdefender, Trend Micro and Panda are not vulnerable to this issue. Eset Anti-Virus is an anti-virus software
