Detail

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 14.10 - Ubuntu 14.04 LTS - Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Summary:

ClamAV could be made to crash or run programs if it processed a specially crafted file.

Software Description: - clamav: Anti-virus utility for Unix

Details:

Kurt Seifried discovered that ClamAV incorrectly handled certain JavaScript files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause ClamAV to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2013-6497)

Damien Millescamp discovered that ClamAV incorrectly handled certain PE files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause ClamAV to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-9050)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following package versions:

Ubuntu 14.10:
clamav 0.98.5+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.10.1

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
clamav 0.98.5+addedllvm-0ubuntu0.14.04.1

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:

Title: SUSE-SU-2014:1574-1 -- Security update for clamav (important)
Description: clamav was updated to version 0.98.5 to fix three security issues and several non-security issues. These security issues have been fixed: * Crash when scanning maliciously crafted yoda's crypter files (CVE-2013-6497). * Heap-based buffer overflow when scanning crypted PE files (CVE-2014-9050). * Crash when using 'clamscan -a'. These non-security issues have been fixed: * Support for the XDP file format and extracting, decoding, and scanning PDF files within XDP files. * Addition of shared library support for LLVM versions 3.1 - 3.5 for the purpose of just-in-time(JIT) compilation of ClamAV bytecode signatures. * Enhancements to the clambc command line utility to assist ClamAV bytecode signature authors by providing introspection into compiled bytecode programs. * Resolution of many of the warning messages from ClamAV compilation. * Improved detection of malicious PE files. * ClamAV 0.98.5 now works with OpenSSL in FIPS compliant mode (bnc#904207). * Fix server socket setup code in clamd (bnc#903489). * Change updateclamconf to prefer the state of the old config file even for commented-out options (bnc#903719). * Fix infinite loop in clamdscan when clamd is not running. * Fix buffer underruns when handling multi-part MIME email attachments. * Fix configuration of OpenSSL on various platforms. * Fix linking issues with libclamunrar. Security Issues: * CVE-2013-6497 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2013-6497> * CVE-2014-9050 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-9050>
