Subject: [esd-l] NOTICE: ZIP archived filename length checks in Sanitizer

All:

A BO vulnerability has been announced in the DUNZIP32.dll zipfile
library used by many commercial programs, including Lotus Notes and
Real Audio player.

In an attempt to mitigate this vulnerability, archived filename length
checks have been added to the development version of the Procmail
Email Sanitizer, and a patch to add these checks to recent stable
releases is also available.

The patch is available at:

http://www.impsec.org/email-tools/sanitizer_zip_filename_length.patch

The development version of the sanitizer is available at:

http://www.impsec.org/email-tools/development/

The sanitizer home page is:
