CVE-2007-4963: Winimage

High severity, CVSS 9.3. EPSS: 2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Visual truncation vulnerability in WinImage 8.10 and earlier allows remote attackers to spoof a destination filename via a long sequence of space characters in a filename within a (1) .IMG or (2) .ISO file. NOTE: this can be leveraged with a separate directory traversal vulnerability to trick a careful user into overwriting arbitrary files.
