The AV engine before DAT 5600 in McAfee VirusScan, Total Protection, Internet Security, SecurityShield for Microsoft ISA Server, Security for Microsoft Sharepoint, Security for Email Servers, Email Gateway, and Active Virus Defense allows remote attackers to bypass virus detection via (1) an invalid Headflags field in a malformed RAR archive, (2) an invalid Packsize field in a malformed RAR archive, or (3) an invalid Filelength field in a malformed ZIP archive.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy McAfee antivirus detection-bypass issue. Specially malformed RAR or ZIP archives could pass through affected McAfee scanning without being detected. The main business risk is false confidence in email, gateway, SharePoint, or endpoint scanning where old DAT versions remain in use. Exposure is likely limited to legacy McAfee deployments running DAT versions before 5600 across VirusScan, Total Protection, Internet Security, ISA Server, SharePoint, email server, Email Gateway, or Active Virus Defense products named in the CVE description. Medium priority unless legacy McAfee scanning remains in production. If affected products still protect email, gateways, or document repositories, remediate promptly because attackers could hide malware from a trusted control. Mitigation focus: Update affected McAfee deployments to DAT 5600 or later where applicable.; Review McAfee SB10001 and current vendor guidance for supported remediation details.; Prioritize email gateways, SharePoint scanners, and perimeter filtering systems..
