The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use with your own software. The virus database is based on the virus database from OpenAntiVirus, but contains additional signatures (including signatures for popular polymorphic viruses, too) and is KEPT UP TO DATE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Security update - backport security fixes from 0.93: CVE-2008-1100 (#442360): Upack Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability CVE-2008-1387 (#442525): Endless loop / hang with crafted arj CVE-2008-0314 (#442740): PeSpin Heap Overflow Vulnerability CVE-2008-1833 (#442741): PE WWPack Heap Overflow Vulnerability -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Apr 24 2008 Tomas Hoger <thoger@redhat.com> - 0.92.1-2 - Security update - backport security fixes from 0.93: CVE-2008-1100 (#442360): Upack Processing Buffer Overflow Vulnerability CVE-2008-1387 (#442525): Endless loop / hang with crafted arj CVE-2008-0314 (#442740): PeSpin Heap Overflow Vulnerability CVE-2008-1833 (#442741): PE WWPack Heap Overflow Vulnerability * Mon Feb 11 2008 Enrico Scholz <enrico.scholz@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de> - 0.92.1-1 - updated to 0.92.1 * Tue Jan 1 2008 Enrico Scholz <enrico.scholz@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de> - 0.92-6 - redisabled unrar stuff completely by using clean sources * Tue Jan 1 2008 Enrico Scholz <enrico.scholz@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de> - 0.92-5 - use a better way to disable RPATH-generation (needed for '--with unrar' builds) * Mon Dec 31 2007 Enrico Scholz <enrico.scholz@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de> - 0.92-4 - added a README.fedora to the milter package (#240610) - ship original sources again; unrar is now licensed correctly (no more stolen code put under GPL).
