The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200410-31 (Archive::Zip: Virus detection evasion)
Archive::Zip can be used by email scanning software (like amavisd-new) to uncompress attachments before virus scanning. By modifying the uncompressed size of archived files in the global header of the ZIP file, it is possible to fool Archive::Zip into thinking some files inside the archive have zero length.
Impact :
An attacker could send a carefully crafted ZIP archive containing a virus file and evade detection on some email virus-scanning software relying on Archive::Zip for decompression.
Workaround :
There is no known workaround at this time.
