Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:118 (perl-Archive-Zip)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to perl-Archive-Zip announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:118. Recently, it was noticed that several antivirus programs miss viruses that are contained in ZIP archives with manipulated directory data. The global archive directory of these ZIP file have been manipulated to indicate zero file sizes. Archive::Zip produces files of zero length when decompressing this type of ZIP file. This causes AV products that use Archive::ZIP to fail to detect viruses in manipulated ZIP archives. One of these products is amavisd-new. The updated packages are patched to fix this problem. Affected versions: 10.1 Solution: To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you. https://secure1.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2004:118 http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bug.html?id=8077 Risk factor : High
