Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security-related update.

Description

- Zipios before 0.1.7 does not properly handle certain malformed zip archives and can go into an infinite loop, causing a denial of service. This is related to zipheadio.h:readUint32() and zipfile.cpp:Zipfile::Zipfile(). (CVE-2019-13453)

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