+ <p>
+ ClamAV is a GPL virus scanner.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Zero Day Initiative (ZDI) reported a heap buffer overflow
+ vulnerability. The vulnerability is due to an incorrect boundary check
+ of the user-supplied data prior to copying it to an insufficiently
+ sized memory buffer. The flaw occurs when the application attempts to
+ handle compressed UPX files.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ For example by sending a maliciously crafted UPX file into a mail
+ server that is integrated with ClamAV, a remote attacker's supplied
+ code could be executed with escalated privileges.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All ClamAV users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=app-antivirus/clamav-0.88&quot;</code>
