Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in LHa, which could be exploited by attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause a denial of service.

The first issue is due an infinite loop in the "read_pt_len()", "read_c_len()", "decode_c_st1()", and "decode_p_st1()" [huf.c] functions when unpacking malformed archives, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application.

The second flaw is due to a buffer overflow error in the "make_table()" [maketbl.c] function when unpacking malformed archives, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application or execute arbitrary commands.
