A null pointer dereference was discovered in ucompthread in stream.c in Irzip 0.631 which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (DOS) via a crafted compressed file.

The remote Ubuntu 16.04 ESM / 18.04 LTS / 20.04 LTS / 22.04 LTS host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-5840-1 advisory.

    It was discovered that Long Range ZIP incorrectly handled pointers. If

    a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a certain

    specially crafted ZIP file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This     issue only affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS.

    It was discovered that Long Range ZIP incorrectly handled pointers. If

    a user or an automated system were tricked into opening a certain

    specially crafted ZIP file, an attacker could possibly use this issue to cause a denial of service. This     issue only affected Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. (CVE-2022-26291)

    It was discovered that Long Range ZIP incorrectly handled memory allocation,

    which could lead to a heap memory corruption. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause denial of     service. This issue affected Ubuntu 14.04 ESM, Ubuntu 16.04 ESM, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, Ubuntu 20.04 LTS,     Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and

    Ubuntu 22.10. (CVE-2022-28044)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Debian 10 / 11 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dsa-5145 advisory.

  - In Long Range Zip (aka lrzip) 0.631, there is an infinite loop and application hang in the get_fileinfo     function (lrzip.c). Remote attackers could leverage this vulnerability to cause a denial of service via a     crafted lrz file. (CVE-2018-5786)

  - A null pointer dereference was discovered lzo_decompress_buf in stream.c in Irzip 0.621 which allows an     attacker to cause a denial of service (DOS) via a crafted compressed file. (CVE-2020-25467)

  - A null pointer dereference was discovered in ucompthread in stream.c in Irzip 0.631 which allows attackers     to cause a denial of service (DOS) via a crafted compressed file. (CVE-2021-27345)

  - Use after free in lzma_decompress_buf function in stream.c in Irzip 0.631 allows attackers to cause Denial     of Service (DoS) via a crafted compressed file. (CVE-2021-27347)

  - lrzip v0.641 was discovered to contain a multiple concurrency use-after-free between the functions     zpaq_decompress_buf() and clear_rulist(). This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service     (DoS) via a crafted Irz file. (CVE-2022-26291)

  - Irzip v0.640 was discovered to contain a heap memory corruption via the component     lrzip.c:initialise_control. (CVE-2022-28044)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
