CVE-2012-1433: n/a vulnerability

CVE-2012-1433: The Microsoft EXE file parser in AhnLab V3 Internet Security 2011.01.18.00, Emsisoft Anti-Malware 5.1.0.1,...

The Microsoft EXE file parser in AhnLab V3 Internet Security 2011.01.18.00, Emsisoft Anti-Malware 5.1.0.1, eSafe 7.0.17.0, Ikarus Virus Utilities T3 Command Line Scanner 1.1.97.0, and Panda Antivirus 10.0.2.7 allows remote attackers to bypass malware detection via an EXE file with a \4a\46\49\46 character sequence at a certain location. NOTE: this may later be SPLIT into multiple CVEs if additional information is published showing that the error occurred independently in different EXE parser implementations.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This CVE describes an antivirus evasion issue, not direct system takeover. Certain older antivirus products could miss a specially crafted Windows EXE because their parser handled the file incorrectly. The business risk is mainly false assurance: malware might pass through controls that organizations expected to block it. Likely exposure is limited to environments still using the named legacy antivirus versions or historical scanning pipelines based on them. The provided sources do not establish impact on current products, patched versions, or other vendors. Prioritize remediation if any listed legacy products still protect executable intake, email, web downloads, or file-upload workflows. Otherwise, track as historical risk and ensure unsupported antivirus technology is retired. Mitigation focus: Inventory endpoint, gateway, and archive scanners for the named legacy versions.; Check each vendor's historical guidance or support channel for fixed builds.; Upgrade or replace unsupported antivirus products with maintained versions..
