Directory traversal vulnerability in gunzip -N in gzip 1.2.4 through 1.3.5 allows remote attackers to write to arbitrary directories via a .. (dot dot) in the original filename within a compressed file.

gnu

Multiple directory traversal vulnerabilities in sitenfo.sh, sitezipchk.sh, and siteziplist.sh in Glftpd 1.26 to 2.00 allow remote authenticated users to (1) determine the existence of arbitrary files, (2) list files in restricted directories, or (3) read arbitrary files from within ZIP or gzip files, via .. (dot dot) sequences and globbing ("*") characters in a SITE NFO command.

The (1) gzexe, (2) zdiff, and (3) znew scripts in the gzip package, as used by other packages such as ncompress, allows local users to overwrite files via a symlink attack on temporary files. NOTE: the znew vulnerability may overlap CVE-2003-0367.

gnu

romload.c in DGen Emulator 1.23 and earlier allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files during decompression of (1) gzip or (2) bzip ROM files.

gzexe in gzip 1.3.3 and earlier will execute an argument when the creation of a temp file fails instead of exiting the program, which could allow remote attackers or local users to execute arbitrary commands, a different vulnerability than CVE-1999-1332.

gnu

gzip before 1.3 in Solaris 8, when called with the -f or -force flags, will change the permissions of files that are hard linked to the target files, which allows local users to view or modify these files.

Stack-based buffer overflow in mod_gzip_printf for mod_gzip 1.3.26.1a and earlier, and possibly later official versions, when running in debug mode, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename in a GET request with an "Accept-Encoding: gzip" header.

dag_apt_repository

gv 3.5.8, and possibly earlier versions, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in the filename for (1) a PDF file or (2) a gzip file.

Format string vulnerability in mod_gzip_printf for mod_gzip 1.3.26.1a and earlier, and possibly later official versions, when running in debug mode and using the Apache log, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via format string characters in an HTTP GET request with an "Accept-Encoding: gzip" header.

dag_apt_repository

mod_gzip 1.3.26.1a and earlier, and possibly later official versions, when running in debug mode without the Apache log, allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via (1) a symlink attack on predictable temporary filenames on Unix systems, or (2) an NTFS hard link on Windows systems when the "Strengthen default permissions of internal system objects" policy is not enabled.

znew in the gzip package allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on temporary files.

InterScan VirusWall 3.52 for Windows allows remote attackers to bypass virus protection and possibly execute arbitrary code via HTTP 1.1 gzip content encoding.

trend_micro

Maped in LuxMan 0.41 uses the user-provided search path to find and execute the gzip program, which allows local users to modify /dev/mem and gain privileges via a modified PATH environment variable that points to a Trojan horse gzip program.

Buffer overflows in gzip 1.3x, 1.2.4, and other versions might allow attackers to execute code via a long file name, possibly remotely if gzip is run on an FTP server.

gnu

gzexe in the gzip package on Red Hat Linux 5.0 and earlier allows local users to overwrite files of other users via a symlink attack on a temporary file.
