DESCRIPTION:
Hamid Ebadi has reported a vulnerability in various SpeedProject
products, which potentially can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a user's system.

The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error when
extracting files compressed with ZIP (.zip) or JAR (.jar). This makes
it possible to have files extracted to arbitrary locations outside the
specified directory using the "../" directory traversal sequence.

Successful exploitation requires that the "Create Directories" option
is enabled (default).

The vulnerability has been reported in the following products. Other
versions may also be affected.
* SpeedCommander 11.01 Build 4450
* ZipStar 5.10
* Squeez 5.10

SOLUTION:
Do not extract untrusted ZIP and JAR files.

Never extract files as an administrative user.
