| Description: | Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'clamav' package(s) announced via the DLA-1953-1 advisory.
Vulnerability Insight:
It was discovered that clamav, the open source antivirus engine, is affected by the following security vulnerabilities:
CVE-2019-12625
Denial of Service (DoS) vulnerability, resulting from excessively long scan times caused by non-recursive zip bombs. Among others, this issue was mitigated by introducing a scan time limit.
CVE-2019-12900
Out-of-bounds write in ClamAV's NSIS bzip2 library when attempting decompression in cases where the number of selectors exceeded the max limit set by the library.
This update triggers a transition from libclamav7 to libclamav9. As a result, several other packages will be recompiled against the fixed package after the release of this update: dansguardian, havp, python-pyclamav, c-icap-modules.
For Debian 8 Jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 0.101.4+dfsg-0+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your clamav packages.
