Two vulnerabilities have been identified in ESET NOD32 AntiVirus, which could be exploited by attackers or malware to cause a denial of service or take complete control of an affected system. These issues are caused by stack overflow errors when handling files with a specially crafted path name, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands by tricking a vulnerable application into scanning a specially crafted file.
