CVE-2007-4549 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Multiple buffer overflows in ALPass 2.7 English and 3.02 Korean allow user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via an ALPass DB (APW) file containing (1) a long file-key or (2) a "Site Information and Folder entry" with a ciphertext_length value much larger than the plaintext_length value.. EPSS estimates a 4.96% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
