CVE-2000-0342

Summary

CVE-2000-0342 is a vulnerability in Eudora 4.x email clients that enables remote attackers to bypass the user warning system for executable file attachments. Instead of presenting a warning before opening the attachment, the client will open a shortcut (.lnk) file that refers to the executable, effectively disguising the true nature of the file. This stealthy technique can lead to the execution of malicious code on the victim's system.
