Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer Overflow or Wraparound in the DMG file parsing process due to improper boundary checks, which may result in an integer overflow on 32-bit platforms. An attacker can cause the scanning process to terminate by submitting a specially crafted DMG file for scanning. This is only exploitable if the software is running on a 32-bit platform.
