Multiple F-Secure Anti-Virus products and versions for Windows and Linux, including Anti-Virus for Windows Servers 5.52 and earlier, Internet Security 2004, 2005 and 2006, and Anti-Virus for Linux Servers 4.64 and earlier, allow remote attackers to hide arbitrary files and data via malformed (1) RAR and (2) ZIP archives, which are not properly scanned.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes a detection-bypass problem in several legacy F-Secure Anti-Virus products. Malformed RAR or ZIP archives could cause files or data inside them to avoid proper scanning, reducing the protection expected from endpoint or server antivirus controls. Exposure is most likely in organizations still running the listed legacy F-Secure products, especially mail, file, or web servers processing archived attachments or downloads. Treat as a legacy-control risk. It is not evidenced as actively exploited here, but affected antivirus may silently miss malicious archived content. Mitigation focus: Inventory F-Secure Anti-Virus products and versions on Windows and Linux systems.; Check F-Secure advisory FSC-2006-1 and vendor support guidance for fixed or replacement versions.; Retire unsupported affected versions where vendor updates are unavailable..
