Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions ClamAV versions prior to 0.96.3

Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the find stream bounds function in pdf.c in libclamav. This can be triggered by remote attackers using a crafted PDF document, potentially leading to a denial of service (application crash) or possibly the execution of arbitrary code.

Recommendations For versions prior to 0.96.3, update to version 0.96.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the processing of PDF documents until the update is applied.
