ClamAV < 0.100.2 is reported vulnerable against denial-of-service attacks
I want to share an alert with you I got from BSI in Germany, that ClamAV < 0.100.2 is vulnerable against denial-of-service attacks.
Their source is the official ClamAV website https://blog.clamav.n...
- The hotfix option would cause service interruption, and will need a little more work than the smaller fixes that go into hotfixes.
We are investigating getting this package updated in the coming firmware 6.9.5 and 6.10.0 (depending on if you are on the LTS or Stable path).
Hi RolandWausE,
We still have no information on when it will be updated to that version. Debian is only currently hosting 0.100.0. We are on Debian 8. Debian 9 had 0.100.1 available last time it was checked, which was about 2 weeks ago.
We will inform our Engineering regarding this but the update probably won't be until December or January.
Regards,
Thanks for the answer. Are you talking about a hotfix or a standard OS update?
If hotfix, December sounds a bit late for calling that fix a hot one.
If not hotfix, could you consider to create one and distribute to the community?
