What is CVE-2004-0932?

The vulnerability allows remote attackers to circumvent the security features of the McAfee Anti-Virus Engine by exploiting a flaw in how compressed files are processed. Specifically, the issue arises from the handling of compressed files that have both local and global headers set to zero, permitting these files to be opened without proper checks against malicious content. This capability makes it easier for attackers to deliver harmful payloads without detection by antivirus measures.
