Authored by Tan Chew Keong | Site secunia.com

Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in various HAURI anti-virus products, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system. The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the archive decompression library when reading the filename of a compressed file from an ALZ archive. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow when a malicious ALZ archive is scanned. Successful exploitation allows arbitrary code execution, but requires that compressed file scanning is enabled.
