CVE-2007-4963
Visual truncation vulnerability in WinImage 8.10 and earlier allows remote attackers to spoof a destination filename via a long sequence of space characters in a filename within a (1) .IMG or (2) .ISO file.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.99%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Visual truncation vulnerability in WinImage 8.10 and earlier allows remote attackers to spoof a destination filename via a long sequence of space characters in a filename within a (1) .IMG or (2) .ISO file. NOTE: this can be leveraged with a separate directory traversal vulnerability to trick a careful user into overwriting arbitrary files.
