Fedora 8 Clamav Security Advisory 2008-9651 Moderate Memory Leak

Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit for UNIX. The main purpose of this

software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The

package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command

line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs

are based on a shared library distributed with the Clam AntiVirus package,

which you can use with your own software. The virus database is based on

the virus database from OpenAntiVirus, but contains additional signatures

(including signatures for popular polymorphic viruses, too) and is KEPT UP

TO DATE.

- Security update - backport security fixes from 0.94.1:

CVE-2008-5050 (#470783): get_unicode_name() off-by-one buffer overflow

* Sun Jul 13 2008 Enrico Scholz - 0.92.1-3

- disabled check which prevents older freshclam versions to run in <4h

intervals (bz #453601)

- backported security fixes from 0.93.3:

CVE-2008-2713: out-of-bounds read on petite files

CVE-2008-1100 (#442360): Upack Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability

CVE-2008-1387 (#442525): Endless loop / hang with crafted arj

CVE-2008-0314 (#442740): PeSpin Heap Overflow Vulnerability

CVE-2008-1833 (#442741): PE WWPack Heap Overflow Vulnerability

* Mon Feb 11 2008 Enrico Scholz - 0.92.1-1

- updated to 0.92.1

* Tue Jan 1 2008 Enrico Scholz - 0.92-6

- redisabled unrar stuff completely by using clean sources

* Tue Jan 1 2008 Enrico Scholz - 0.92-5

- use a better way to disable RPATH-generation (needed for '--with

unrar' builds)

* Mon Dec 31 2007 Enrico Scholz - 0.92-4

- added a README.fedora to the milter package (#240610)

- ship original sources again; unrar is now licensed correctly (no more

stolen code put under GPL). Nevertheless, this license is not GPL

compatible, and to allow libclamav to be used by GPL applications,

unrar is disabled by a ./configure switch.

- use pkg-config in clamav-config to emulate --cflags and --libs

operations (fixes partly multilib issues)

- registered some more auto-updated files and marked them as %ghost

* Fri Dec 21 2007 Tom "spot" Callaway - 0.92-3

- updated to 0.92 (SECURITY):

- CVE-2007-6335 MEW PE File Integer Overflow Vulnerability
