Simple fuzzing found an integer overflow in the dec2tnef library. This allocation from Attachment::setDataFromAttachment() doesn't verify that the attacker controlled value doesn't wrap:

.text:000227B8 8D 42 01                       lea     eax, [edx+1]
.text:000227BB 89 85 68 FF FF+                mov     [ebp+var_98], eax
.text:000227C1 8B 83 CC FF FF+                mov     eax, ds:(_ZSt7nothrow_ptr - 42CFCh)[ebx]
.text:000227C7 89 44 24 04                    mov     [esp+4], eax
.text:000227CB 8B 85 68 FF FF+                mov     eax, [ebp+var_98]
.text:000227D1 C1 E0 02                       shl     eax, 2
.text:000227D4 89 04 24                       mov     [esp], eax
.text:000227D7 89 95 5C FF FF+                mov     [ebp+src], edx
.text:000227DD 89 8D 58 FF FF+                mov     [ebp+var_A8], ecx
.text:000227E3 E8 54 22 FE FF                 call    __ZnajRKSt9nothrow_t ; operator new[](uint,std::nothrow_t const&)

That's (count + 1) * 4, without any checking that will succeed. The attached testcase reaches this code on Symantec Scan Engine, I'm not sure which other products use this code.
