Description

zlib versions up to and including 1.3.1.2 include a global buffer overflow in the untgz utility located under contrib/untgz.

The flaw occurs when a user executes the untgz command with an excessively long archive name supplied via the command line, leading to an out-of-bounds write in a fixed-size global buffer.
