Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.71451
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandriva Security Advisory MDVSA-2012:094 (clamav)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:
The remote host is missing an update to clamav
announced via advisory MDVSA-2012:094.

This is a bugfix release that upgrades clamav to the latest version
(0.97.5) that resolves the following security issues:

The TAR file parser in ClamAV 0.96.4 allows remote attackers to bypass
malware detection via a TAR archive entry with a length field that
exceeds the total TAR file size. NOTE: this may later be SPLIT into
multiple CVEs if additional information is published showing that the
error occurred independently in different TAR parser implementations
(CVE-2012-1457).

The Microsoft CHM file parser in ClamAV 0.96.4 allows remote attackers
to bypass malware detection via a crafted reset interval in the LZXC
header of a CHM file. NOTE: this may later be SPLIT into multiple CVEs
if additional information is published showing that the error occurred
independently in different CHM parser implementations (CVE-2012-1458).

The TAR file parser in ClamAV 0.96.4 allows remote attackers to
bypass malware detection via a TAR archive entry with a length field
corresponding to that entire entry, plus part of the header of the
next entry. NOTE: this may later be SPLIT into multiple CVEs if
additional information is published showing that the error occurred
independently in different TAR parser implementations (CVE-2012-1459).

Affected: Enterprise Server 5.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
