CVE-2002-0059

The decompression algorithm in zlib 1.1.3 and earlier, as used in many different utilities and packages, causes inflateEnd to release certain memory more than once a "double free", which may allow local and remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a block of malformed compression data...
