Moreover, If you download such archives from an internet loaction, or 'copy/paste' such files from a distination. Those Vulnerable "Antivirus Softwares" with their auto-protect engines active, may also trigger a DoS. There have been reports in some discussion fourms, *Panda Antivirus *Norton AV Corporate Ed. (version 7.60.926) *MacAfee uvscan scan for Linux (4.3.20) *DrWeb (http://www.drweb.ru/) *AVG v7.0.251 *ClamAV version 0.07, 0.72 <--- please confirm this! *eTrust InoculateIT version 6.0 Are vulnerable. *F-Prot 4.4.2 for Linux did took considerable amount of time [avg: 90 seconds] while scanning the file, there have been conflicting report... whether or not, F-Prot is vulnerable. But a VA software that takes so long to scan just a 15 kb file...... is a strange behavior. I'll personally call, it vulnerable... cauz a DoS could likely be triggered.
