medium Nessus Plugin ID 190351

Synopsis

The antivirus running on the remote host is affected by a remote code execution vulnerability.

Description

The ClamAV reported version is 0.104.x, 0.105.x, 1.0.x < 1.0.4, 1.1.x or 1.2.x < 1.2.1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability in the “VirusEvent” feature, where an attacker could manipulate the '%f' format string parameter to inject malicious commands.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to ClamAV version 1.2.2, 1.0.5 or later.
