5.1 MEDIUM — AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Description

Win32 ICQ 98a 1.30, and possibly other versions, does not display the entire portion of long filenames, which could allow attackers to send an executable file with a long name that contains so many spaces that the .exe extension is not displayed, which could make the user believe that the file is safe to open from the client.

Affected configurations

• mirabilis icq 98a (<= 1.30)
