The vulnerability is caused due to boundary errors in "CxAce60.dll" and "CxAce60u.dll" within the handling of an ACE archive that contains a file with an overly long filename. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow and allows arbitrary code execution when a specially crafted archive is extracted. ====================================================================== 4) Solution Update to the fixed versions. http://www.speedproject.de/enu/download.html Squeez 5: Update to Squeez 5.20 Build 4600.
