Detail

Id Description
20483 Clam AntiVirus tnef.c tnef_attachment Function Infinite Loop DoS

Clam AntiVirus contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered due to a design error of the 'tnef_attachment()' function in 'tnef.c', which uses an user controlled value of the 'fseek()' function to move the file pointer to a specific byte in a file. With a specially crafted CAB file, a remote attacker can cause the application to enter an infinite loop resulting in a loss of availability.
