Description

• CVE-2017-5974 (arbitrary code execution)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the __zzip_get32 function in fetch.c in
zziplib 0.13.62 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(crash) via a crafted ZIP file.

• CVE-2017-5975 (arbitrary code execution)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the __zzip_get64 function in fetch.c in
zziplib 0.13.62 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
(crash) via a crafted ZIP file.

• CVE-2017-5976 (arbitrary code execution)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the zzip_mem_entry_extra_block function
in memdisk.c in zziplib 0.13.62 allows remote attackers to cause a
denial of service (crash) via a crafted ZIP file.

• CVE-2017-5979 (denial of service)

The prescan_entry function in fseeko.c in zziplib 0.13.62 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and
crash) via a crafted ZIP file.

• CVE-2017-5981 (denial of service)

seeko.c in zziplib 0.13.62 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
