Indeed. There are tons of reports of ClamAV installations suddently getting wedged, see http://lists.clamav.net/pipermail/clamav-users/2018-January/thread.html#5658 . It is a bit unclear whether 0.99.3 does fix this issue (which seems to be caused by a recent signature update), but other news sites claim that at least CVE-2017-12376 is getting actively exploited.
