Synopsis |
19 |
======== |
20 |
|
21 |
Multiple vulnerabilities in ClamAV may result in the remote execution |
22 |
of arbitrary code. |
23 |
|
24 |
Background |
25 |
========== |
26 |
|
27 |
Clam AntiVirus is a free anti-virus toolkit for UNIX, designed |
28 |
especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways. |

Description |
39 |
=========== |
40 |
|
41 |
An integer overflow has been reported in the "cli_scanpe()" function in |
42 |
file libclamav/pe.c (CVE-2008-0318). Another unspecified vulnerability |
43 |
has been reported in file libclamav/mew.c (CVE-2008-0728). |
44 |
|
45 |
Impact |
46 |
====== |
47 |
|
48 |
A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to scan a |
49 |
specially crafted file, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary |
50 |
code with the privileges of the user running ClamAV (either a system |
51 |
user or the "clamav" user if clamd is compromised). |
52 |
|
53 |
Workaround |
54 |
========== |
55 |
|
56 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
57 |
|
58 |
Resolution |
59 |
========== |
60 |
|
61 |
All ClamAV users should upgrade to the latest version: |
62 |
|
63 |
# emerge --sync |
64 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-antivirus/clamav-0.92.1" |
65 |
