F-Secure Security Advisory FSC-2008-2
- http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00001404.html
March 17, 2008 - "...The Secure Programming Group at Oulu University has created a collection of malformed archive files. These archive files break and crash products from at least 40 vendors - including several antivirus vendors...including us. We've fixed a long list of our products to resolve these issues. Home users will get these fixes via the normal update system and they don't have to do anything... Our guidance here is the same as for patches from any other vendor: Patch now before someone figures out how to exploit the vulnerability. At the moment we are not aware of any public exploit methods for these vulnerabilities. For more information, please consult F-Secure Security Advisory FSC-2008-2* and CERT-FI and CPNI Joint Vulnerability Advisory on Archive Formats**."
