ViRobot Advanced Server
HAURI LiveCall

With vrAZMain.dll version 5.8.22.137.

Prior versions may also be affected.

======================================================================
2) Severity

Rating: Highly Critical
Impact: System access
Where: Remote

======================================================================
3) Description of Vulnerability

Secunia Research has discovered a vulnerability in various HAURI
anti-virus products, which can be exploited by malicious people to
compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the archive
decompression library when reading the filename of a compressed file
from an ALZ archive. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow when a malicious ALZ archive is scanned.

Successful exploitation allows arbitrary code execution, but requires
that compressed file scanning is enabled.

======================================================================
