MDKSA-2006:016: clamav Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary
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-2006:016 (clamav).
A heap-based buffer overflow was discovered in ClamAV versions prior to 0.88
which allows remote attackers to cause a crash and possibly execute arbitrary
code via specially crafted UPX files. This update provides ClamAV 0.88 which
corrects this issue and also fixes some other bugs.
