clamav vulnerability
=========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 14.10
- Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

Summary:

ClamAV could be made to crash or run programs if it processed a specially
crafted file.

Software Description:
- clamav: Anti-virus utility for Unix

Details:

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior discovered that ClamAV incorrectly handled
certain upack packer files. An attacker could possibly use this issue to
cause ClamAV to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly
execute arbitrary code.

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 14.10:
  clamav                          0.98.6+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.10.1

Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:
  clamav                          0.98.6+dfsg-0ubuntu0.14.04.1

Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
  clamav                          0.98.6+dfsg-0ubuntu0.12.04.1

fixes. In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary
changes.
