Info Zip · Unzip · CVE-2005-4667
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
UnZip versions 5.50 and earlier
**Description**
The issue allows user-assisted attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename command line argument. However, since the overflow occurs in a non-setuid program, the risk is relatively low unless UnZip is passed long arguments when invoked from other programs.
**Recommendations**
For UnZip versions 5.50 and earlier, consider avoiding the use of long filename command line arguments until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, restrict the length of filename arguments passed to UnZip to prevent potential exploitation.
