CVE-2000-0342 is a Windows shortcut handling flaw in Eudora 4.x, known as Stealth Attachment. The mail client warns users about directly attached executable content such as program and batch files, but this protection can be bypassed by sending a Windows shortcut attachment that references the executable payload instead of attaching the executable in a form that triggers the warning. Because the client does not treat the shortcut as equivalent to the referenced executable content, it fails to present the intended security warning and allows the dangerous attachment to be exposed to the user under less suspicious conditions.
