Focus on unzip_project vulnerabilities and metrics.
Last updated: 08 Mar 2025, 23:25 UTC
This page consolidates all known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) associated with unzip_project. We track both calendar-based metrics (using fixed periods) and rolling metrics (using gliding windows) to give you a comprehensive view of security trends and risk evolution. Use these insights to assess risk and plan your patching strategy.
For a broader perspective on cybersecurity threats, explore the comprehensive list of CVEs by vendor and product. Stay updated on critical vulnerabilities affecting major software and hardware providers.
Total unzip_project CVEs: 15
Earliest CVE date: 06 Feb 2015, 15:59 UTC
Latest CVE date: 27 Dec 2022, 22:15 UTC
Latest CVE reference: CVE-2020-36561
30-day Count (Rolling): 0
365-day Count (Rolling): 0
Calendar-based Variation
Calendar-based Variation compares a fixed calendar period (e.g., this month versus the same month last year), while Rolling Growth Rate uses a continuous window (e.g., last 30 days versus the previous 30 days) to capture trends independent of calendar boundaries.
Month Variation (Calendar): 0%
Year Variation (Calendar): 0%
Month Growth Rate (30-day Rolling): 0.0%
Year Growth Rate (365-day Rolling): 0.0%
Average CVSS: 4.17
Max CVSS: 6.8
Critical CVEs (≥9): 0
| Range | Count |
|---|---|
| 0.0-3.9 | 5 |
| 4.0-6.9 | 10 |
| 7.0-8.9 | 0 |
| 9.0-10.0 | 0 |
These are the five CVEs with the highest CVSS scores for unzip_project, sorted by severity first and recency.
Due to improper path sanitization, archives containing relative file paths can cause files to be written (or overwritten) outside of the target directory.
A flaw was found in unzip. The vulnerability occurs due to improper handling of Unicode strings, which can lead to a null pointer dereference. This flaw allows an attacker to input a specially crafted zip file, leading to a crash or code execution.
A flaw was found in Unzip. The vulnerability occurs during the conversion of a wide string to a local string that leads to a heap of out-of-bound write. This flaw allows an attacker to input a specially crafted zip file, leading to a crash or code execution.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the getZip64Data function in Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted zip file in the -t command argument to the unzip command.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the test_compr_eb function in Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted zip file in the -t command argument to the unzip command.
Heap-based buffer overflow in the CRC32 verification in Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted zip file in the -t command argument to the unzip command.
Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 mishandles the overlapping of files inside a ZIP container, leading to denial of service (resource consumption), aka a "better zip bomb" issue.
Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 has a buffer overflow in list.c, when a ZIP archive has a crafted relationship between the compressed-size value and the uncompressed-size value, because a buffer size is 10 and is supposed to be 12.
A heap-based buffer overflow exists in Info-Zip UnZip version <= 6.00 in the processing of password-protected archives that allows an attacker to perform a denial of service or to possibly achieve code execution.
Buffer overflow in the zi_short function in zipinfo.c in Info-Zip UnZip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large compression method value in the central directory file header.
Buffer overflow in the list_files function in list.c in Info-Zip UnZip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via vectors related to the compression method.
Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via empty bzip2 data in a ZIP archive.
Info-ZIP UnZip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer over-read and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted password-protected ZIP archive, possibly related to an Extra-Field size value.
unzip 6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read or write and crash) via an extra field with an uncompressed size smaller than the compressed field size in a zip archive that advertises STORED method compression.
