Alpine: multiple clamav packages, multiple freshclam packages: security update to 0.100.3-r0
high Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 403840
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:- A vulnerability in the Portable Document Format (PDF) scanning functionality of Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV)
Software versions 0.101.1 and prior could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of
service (DoS) condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to a lack of proper data handling
mechanisms within the device buffer while indexing remaining file data on an affected device. An attacker
could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted PDF files to an affected device. A successful exploit
could allow the attacker to cause a heap buffer out-of-bounds read condition, resulting in a crash that
could result in a denial of service condition on an affected device. (CVE-2019-1787)
- A vulnerability in the Object Linking & Embedding (OLE2) file scanning functionality of Clam AntiVirus
(ClamAV) Software versions 0.101.1 and prior could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a
denial of service condition on an affected device. The vulnerability is due to a lack of proper input and
validation checking mechanisms for OLE2 files sent an affected device. An attacker could exploit this
vulnerability by sending malformed OLE2 files to the device running an affected version ClamAV Software.
An exploit could allow the attacker to cause an out-of-bounds write condition, resulting in a crash that
could result in a denial of service condition on an affected device. (CVE-2019-1788)
- ClamAV versions prior to 0.101.2 are susceptible to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An out-of-
bounds heap read condition may occur when scanning PE files. An example is Windows EXE and DLL files that
have been packed using Aspack as a result of inadequate bound-checking. (CVE-2019-1789)
