Description Marcus Meissner 2005-09-17 20:22:16 UTC
from clamav announcement: 
This version fixes vulnerabilities in handling of UPX and FSG compressed 
executables.  
>>>> this is security related. 
Support for PE files, Zip and Cabinet archives has been improved and other 
small bugfixes have been made.  
The new option "--on-outdated-execute" allows freshclam to run a command when 
system reports a new engine version.
Comment 1 Reinhard Max 2005-09-19 10:39:54 UTC
Updated packages have been submitted for 9.0, sles9, 9.2, 9.3, 10.0, and STABLE.

Mbuild packages are available under /work/built/mbuild/nitsch-max-1, and on
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/clamav .

Matthias, can you please test them on the scan hosts?

Comment 3 Marcus Meissner 2005-09-19 13:44:14 UTC
patchinfos submitted. 
 
i only submitted for "clamav", we can leave the clamav-db alone, right? 
Comment 4 Reinhard Max 2005-09-19 13:59:38 UTC
Yes, those who use clamav seriously have to use freshclam to keep their virus
database up to date, and so they don't need the -db package at all, but
unfortunately the authors of ClamAV refused my suggestion to separate the
database from the source code distribution.
Comment 5 Matthias Boettger 2005-09-20 12:32:32 UTC
updated on our servers.
