Subject: Re: Heap overflow and DoS in unzip 6.0

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

> Two issues were found in unzip 6.0:

Please see our comments about multi-session use cases in the
http://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2014/11/04/7 post.
Demonstrating that a crash occurs, or that the flow of execution never
halts, after entering command-line arguments is not necessarily
sufficient for obtaining a CVE ID.

We found this:

  http://info-zip.org/FAQ.html#threads
  Can I use the Windows DLLs in a multithreaded application?

  The UnZip DLL is believed to be thread-safe.

which suggests that programs exist that are unzipping files for
multiple clients within the same run of the program. (Thread safety is
not a critical factor; what is important is that an attacker can cause
a denial of service to another person who presented their own ZIP
archive independently.)

> * A heap overflow triggered by unzipping a file with password (e.g unzip -p
> -P x sigsegv.zip)

> AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0xb5202104 at pc 0x80500c0 bp 0xbfffedb8 sp 0xbfffedac
> READ of size 1

Use CVE-2015-7696 for this buffer over-read issue.


> * A denegation of service with a file that never finishes unzipping (e.g.
> unzip sigxcpu.zip).

Use CVE-2015-7697.
