Buffer overflow in the LHA decompression component in F-Secure anti-virus products for Microsoft Windows and Linux before 20070529 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted LHA archive, related to an integer wrap, a similar issue to CVE-2006-4335.

Security readout for executives and security teams

A crafted LHA archive could crash or potentially take control of affected F-Secure anti-virus software while it scans the file. Because anti-virus products often inspect email, downloads, and file shares automatically, vulnerable systems may be exposed without a user opening the archive directly. Exposure is most likely where older F-Secure anti-virus deployments scan inbound mail, web downloads, archives, or shared files. The source bundle does not enumerate exact product editions or versions beyond Windows and Linux products before 20070529. Treat as high priority for legacy environments. The vulnerable component sits in security software that may process untrusted files automatically, and the stated impact includes remote code execution. Modern, supported deployments are less likely to be exposed, but legacy F-Secure installations should be verified. Mitigation focus: Update affected F-Secure anti-virus deployments to versions including the 20070529 fix or later.; Review the F-Secure advisory for exact product-specific update guidance.; Prioritize systems scanning email gateways, downloads, and shared file repositories..
