advisory

Norton AntiVirus 2002 ASCII Control Character Denial
Of Service Vulnerability

Norton AntiVirus 2002 has been reported to crash when
performing manual scans on files contained in certain
folders. This is related to how the software handles
ASCII control characters (represented by decimal
values in the range of 1-31).

Although unconfirmed this issue may allow a malicious
file to go un-scanned, and so lead a user into a false
sense of security.
