Two vulnerabilities exist in the Compressed Folders function:
An unchecked buffer exists in the programs that handles the decompressing of files from a zipped file.
A security vulnerability results because attempts to open a file with a specially malformed filename
contained in a zipped file could possibly result in Windows Explorer failing, or in code of the
attacker

allow an attacker to put a file in a known location on the users system, such as placing a program in a
