Public bug reported:

Running zip command with -T -TT arguments causes zip process to crash
due to buffer overflow. See below:


$ zip a.zip /etc/hosts -T -TT "ls"
  adding: etc/hosts (deflated 35%)
*** buffer overflow detected ***: terminated


zip error: Interrupted (aborting)
free(): double free detected in tcache 2


$ lsb_release -rd
OS: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS

$ apt-cache policy zip
