2010-01-29 CVE-2009-2624 Improper Input Validation vulnerability in GNU Gzip
The huft_build function in inflate.c in gzip before 1.3.13 creates a hufts (aka huffman) table that is too small, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash or infinite loop) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted archive.
