22 <synopsis>

24 execution of arbitrary code and Denial of Service attacks.

40 especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways.

45 iDefense reported an integer overflow vulnerability in the cli_scanpe()
46 function when parsing Portable Executable (PE) files packed in the MEW
47 format, that could be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow
48 (CVE-2007-6335). Toeroek Edwin reported an off-by-one error when
49 decompressing MS-ZIP compressed CAB files (CVE-2007-6336). An
50 unspecified vulnerability related to the bzip2 decompression algorithm
51 has also been discovered (CVE-2007-6337).

54 <impact type="high">
55 <p>
56 A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to scan a
57 specially crafted file, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary
58 code with the privileges of the user running ClamAV (either a system
59 user or the "clamav" user if clamd is compromised).
60 </p>
61 </impact>
62 <workaround>
63 <p>
64 There is no known workaround at this time.
65 </p>
66 </workaround>
67 <resolution>
68 <p>
69 All ClamAV users should upgrade to the latest version:
70 </p>
71 <code>
72 # emerge --sync
73 # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-antivirus/clamav-0.91.2-r1&quot;</code>
