<description>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ulf Harnhammar and an anonymous German researcher discovered that
|
|
Freshclam fails to check the size of the header data returned by a
|
|
webserver.
|
|
</p>
|
|

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By enticing a user to connect to a malicious webserver an attacker
|
|
could cause the execution of arbitrary code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.

All ClamAV users should upgrade to the latest version:
|

<code>
|

# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=app-antivirus/clamav-0.88.2"</code>
