CVE-2007-6537 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. Stack-based buffer overflow in the zfile_gunzip function in zfile.c in WinUAE 1.4.4 and earlier allows user-assisted remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long filename in a gzipped archive, such as a (1) gz, (2) adz, (3) roz, or (4) hdz archive in a compressed floppy disk image.. EPSS estimates a 6.34% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
