+ Hanno boeck reported an error in libclamav/chmunpack.c when processing
+ CHM files (CVE-2008-1389). Other unspecified vulnerabilities were also
+ reported, including a NULL pointer dereference in libclamav
+ (CVE-2008-3912), memory leaks in freshclam/manager.c (CVE-2008-3913),
+ and file descriptor leaks in libclamav/others.c and libclamav/sis.c
+ (CVE-2008-3914).
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could entice a user or automated system to scan a
+ specially crafted CHM, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service
+ (daemon crash). The other attack vectors mentioned above could also
+ result in a Denial of Service.
+ </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 "&gt;=app-antivirus/clamav-0.94"</code>
+ </resolution>
