Archive::Zip Perl module before 1.14, when used by antivirus programs such as amavisd-new, allows remote attackers to bypass antivirus protection via a compressed file with both local and global headers set to zero, which does not prevent the compressed file from being opened on a target system.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue affects old deployments using the Perl Archive::Zip module before 1.14 in antivirus processing. A specially malformed ZIP could avoid antivirus inspection while still being openable by the recipient, weakening a mail or file scanning control. Exposure is most likely in legacy mail gateways, antivirus workflows, or Unix/Linux systems still using Archive::Zip before 1.14 for ZIP inspection. The bundle does not identify current affected vendors beyond generic Archive::Zip usage and examples. Prioritize if the organization still operates legacy mail or antivirus gateways from this era. Modern environments are unlikely to be exposed unless old Perl modules or packaged appliances remain in service. Mitigation focus: Upgrade Perl Archive::Zip to version 1.14 or later where it is used for archive scanning.; Review vendor advisories for packaged fixes from the relevant operating system or antivirus stack.; Inventory amavisd-new and antivirus integrations that rely on Perl Archive::Zip..
