Vulnerabilities (CVE)

ClamAV before 0.96 does not properly handle the (1) CAB and (2) 7z file formats, which allows remote attackers to bypass virus detection via a crafted archive that is compatible with standard archive utilities.

The cli_pdf function in libclamav/pdf.c in ClamAV before 0.96.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed PDF file, related to an inconsistency in the calculated stream length and the real stream length.

libclamav in ClamAV before 0.94 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via vectors related to an out-of-memory condition.

The unpack feature in ClamAV 0.93.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a corrupted LZH file.

The CLI_ISCONTAINED macro in libclamav/others.h in ClamAV before 0.95.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed file with UPack encoding.

Multiple memory leaks in freshclam/manager.c in ClamAV before 0.94 might allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via unspecified vectors related to "error handling logic".

Unspecified vulnerability in ClamAV before 0.95 allows remote attackers to bypass detection of malware via a modified RAR archive.

libclamav/untar.c in ClamAV before 0.95 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted TAR file that causes (1) clamd and (2) clamscan to hang.

The unmew11 function in libclamav/mew.c in libclamav in ClamAV before 0.92.1 has unknown impact and attack vectors that trigger "heap corruption."

ClamAV 0.94.1 and possibly 0.93.1, when Internet Explorer 6 or 7 is used, allows remote attackers to bypass detection of malware in an HTML document by placing an MZ header (aka "EXE info") at the beginning, and modifying the filename to have (1) no extension, (2) a .txt extension, or (3) a .jpg extension, as demonstrated by a document containing a CVE-2006-5745 exploit.

libclamav/pe.c in ClamAV before 0.95 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted EXE file that triggers a divide-by-zero error.

The OLE2 parser in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) via an OLE2 file with (1) a large property size or (2) a loop in the FAT file block chain that triggers an infinite loop, as demonstrated via a crafted DOC file.

Clam AntiVirus ClamAV before 0.90 does not close open file descriptors under certain conditions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption and failed scans) via CAB archives with a cabinet header record length of zero, which causes a function to return without closing a file descriptor.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the cli_url_canon function in libclamav/phishcheck.c in ClamAV before 0.95.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted URL.

Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in ClamAV before 0.94 have unknown impact and attack vectors related to file descriptor leaks on the "error path" in (1) libclamav/others.c and (2) libclamav/sis.c.

Heap-based buffer overflow in the pefromupx function in libclamav/upx.c in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) 0.81 through 0.88.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted UPX packed file containing sections with large rsize values.

Multiple format string vulnerabilities in the logging code in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.88.1 might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. NOTE: as of 20060410, it is unclear whether this is a vulnerability, as there is some evidence that the arguments are actually being sanitized properly.

The cabd_find function in cabd.c of the libmspack library (mspack) for Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.87.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted CAB file that causes cabd_find to be called with a zero length.
