CVE-2007-0897

Status Candidate

Overview

Clam AntiVirus ClamAV before 0.90 does not close open file descriptors under certain conditions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor consumption and failed scans) via CAB archives with a cabinet header record length of zero, which causes a function to return without closing a file descriptor.

iDEFENSE Security Advisory 2007-02-15.1
Posted Feb 16, 2007
Authored by iDefense Labs | Site idefense.com

iDefense Security Advisory 02.15.07 - Remote exploitation of a resource consumption vulnerability in Clam AntiVirus' ClamAV allows attackers to degrade the service of the clamd scanner. The vulnerability specifically exists due to a file descriptor leak. When clam encounters a cabinet header with a record length of zero it will return from a function without closing a local file descriptor. This can be triggered multiple times, eventually using up all but three of its available file descriptors. This prevents clam from scanning most archives, including zip and tar files. iDefense has confirmed this vulnerability affects Clam AntiVirus ClamAV v0.90RC1.1. All versions prior to the 0.90 stable release are suspected to be vulnerable.
