CVE-2021-4217

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.

UnZip is an extraction utility for archives compressed in .zip format. UnZip will list, test, or extract files from a .zip archive, commonly found on MS-DOS systems. The default behavior (with no options) is to extract all files into the current directory (and subdirectorie below it) from the specified zipfile.

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. (CVE-2021-4217)

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. (CVE-2022-0529, CVE-2022-0530)

It was discovered that unzip did not properly handle unicode strings under certain circumstances. If a user were tricked into opening a specially crafted zip file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause unzip to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code.
