TK> Hi Rafel,

TK> We have analysed the reported vulnerabilities in the Symantec, McAfee

TK> It appears that your conclusions for Symantec and McAfee are incorrect.
TK> Following your examples seems to only cause null-pointer dereferences

TK> However, the Panda issue is an exploitable heap overflow.

TK> If you have any other information regarding Symantec and McAfee, which
TK> proves that a buffer overflow exists then please publish this.
