Frugalware Security Advisory                           FSA-155

Date: 2007-04-17
Package: clamav
Vulnerable versions: <= 0.90.1-1
Unaffected versions: >= 0.90.2-1terminus1
Related bugreport: http://bugs.frugalware.org/task/1946
CVE: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1745
			http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-1997

Description
===========

Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Clam AntiVirus. One has an unknown impact, while the other can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or to compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An unspecified file descriptor leak error exists within libclamav/chmunpack.c.
2) A signedness error exists within the &quot;cab_unstore()&quot; function in libclamav/cab.c. This can be exploited to cause a stack based buffer overflow via a specially crafted &quot;.cab&quot; file, and may allow execution of arbitrary code or crashing of the clamd process.

Updated Packages
================

Check if you have clamav installed:

	# pacman -Q clamav

If found, then you should upgrade to the latest version:

	# pacman -Sy clamav
