3.7
CVSS v3.1
Official Description
Multiple buffer overflows in WinZip 9.0 and earlier may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via multiple vectors, including the command line.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2004-1465 requires local access, meaning attackers must already have a foothold on the target system.
Exploitation requires some privileges, which limits the exposure to scenarios where an attacker has already gained initial access.
A proof-of-concept (PoC) exploit exists for CVE-2004-1465. While not yet confirmed in active campaigns, the availability of PoC code increases exploitation risk substantially.
