Rated medium severity (CVSS 5.5), this vulnerability is no authentication required, low attack complexity. Public exploit code available and no vendor patch available.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Write (CWE-787), which allows attackers to write data beyond allocated buffer boundaries leading to code execution or crashes. Heap-based buffer overflow in the __zzip_get64 function in fetch.c in zziplib 0.13.62, 0.13.61, 0.13.60, 0.13.59, 0.13.58, 0.13.57, 0.13.56 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted ZIP file. Affected products include: Gdraheim Zziplib, Debian Debian Linux.
RemediationAI
No vendor patch is available at time of analysis. Monitor vendor advisories for updates. Validate write boundaries, use memory-safe languages, enable compiler protections (ASLR, stack canaries).
