Nigel,

Since I couldn't find any other reference to current CHM bugs at clamav.net 
I went ahead and posted one: 
https://wwws.clamav.net/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=742

They seem pretty emphatic about not supporting clamav-win32...
"Please do not report any bug affecting software derived from ClamAV and 
distributed by a third party (e.g. ClamWin, clamav-win32, ClamXav) because 
we have no control over them. Contact their developers instead. Bugs in the 
CygWin based ports like ClamWin and clamav-win32 should be reported to Reini 
Urban"
...so I mentioned your specific instruction to post there

Finally, I understand your point of view with regards to broadcasting 
vulnerabilities, but I figured it was already implied by the common use of 
clamav as an MTA scanner, and in my defense I simultaneously offered a 
solution that I've already tested and implemented (downgrade to 0.91.2).

On that note, I STRONGLY URGE anyone using clamav 0.92 for MTA scanning or 
other exposed uses in production systems to immediately test their 
susceptibility to this problem and take appropriate action (possibly 
including a downgrade to 0.91.2).

Ryan
