The recent update for ClamAV addresses several moderate security vulnerabilities, including protections against ZIP bomb attacks and out-of-bounds write exploits.
An update that solves two vulnerabilities and has one errata is now available

Summary

This update for clamav fixes the following issues: Security issue fixed: - CVE-2019-12625: Fixed a ZIP bomb issue by adding detection and heuristics for zips with overlapping files (bsc#1144504). - CVE-2019-12900: Fixed an out-of-bounds write in decompress.c with many selectors (bsc#1149458). Non-security issues fixed: - Added the --max-scantime clamscan option and MaxScanTime clamd configuration option (bsc#1144504). - Increased the startup timeout of clamd to 5 minutes to cater for the grown virus database as a workaround until clamd has learned to talk to systemd to extend the timeout as long as needed (bsc#1151839). Patch Instructions: To install this SUSE Security Update use the SUSE recommended installation methods like YaST online_update or "zypper patch".
