Check for the version of the clamav package
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2005:025 (clamav).
Two problems were discovered in versions of clamav prior to 0.81. A possible hacker
could evade virus scanning by sending a base64-encoded imaege file in a URL.
Also, by sending a specially-crafted ZIP file, a possible hacker could cause a DoS
(Denial of Service) by crashing the clamd daemon.
