Sophos Antivirus CHM Chunk Name Length Memory Corruption Vulnerability
This vulnerability is related to the CHM (Compiled HTML Help) file format. It is caused by a boundary error in the processing of the CHM chunk name length. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by tricking a user into opening a specially crafted CHM file. Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.
Mitigation:
Users should avoid opening CHM files from untrusted sources.
