PARTIAL Summary
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.

NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DLA-1759.NASL description Out-of-bounds read and write conditions have been fixed in clamav. CVE-2019-1787 An out-of-bounds heap read condition may occur when scanning PDF documents. The defect is a failure to correctly keep track of the number of bytes remaining in a buffer when indexing file data. CVE-2019-1788 An out-of-bounds heap write condition may occur when scanning OLE2 files such as Microsoft Office 97-2003 documents. The invalid write happens when an invalid pointer is mistakenly used to initialize a 32bit integer to zero. This is likely to crash the application. CVE-2019-1789 An out-of-bounds heap read condition may occur when scanning PE files (i.e. Windows EXE and DLL files) that have been packed using Aspack as a result of inadequate bound-checking.
