CVE-2006-1269
zoo 2.10 - Buffer Overflow via Long Filename Command Line Arguments
Title source: llmExploitation Summary
EIP tracks 1 public exploit for CVE-2006-1269. PoCs published by Josh Bressers.
AI-analyzed exploit summary This exploit leverages a local buffer overflow in the 'zoo' archiving utility by creating deeply nested directories with long names to trigger arbitrary code execution. The PoC demonstrates the vulnerability by crafting a path exceeding buffer limits, leading to potential privilege escalation.
Description
Buffer overflow in the parse function in parse.c in zoo 2.10 might allow local users to execute arbitrary code via long filename command line arguments, which are not properly handled during archive creation. NOTE: since this issue is local and not setuid, the set of attack scenarios is limited, although is reasonable to expect that there are some situations in which the zoo user might automatically list attacker-controlled filenames to add to the zoo archive.
