Strangely, I was unable to determine when that signature was added to the
ClamAV database as it's not listed on any of the update notices I receive on
the [clamav-virusdb] list. Although it's a 2021 CVE, it wasn't reported by Red
Hat until the end of January, so most certainly had to be added by ClamAV this
year after that.
But here is the complex signature that is used for matching:
VIRUS NAME: Osx.Exploit.CVE_2021_4034-9951522-1
