Article contents:

Clam Anti-Virus ClamAV running on Mac OS X is affected by a command  
execution vulnerability.


Reportedly, when a suspected infected file is handled by the  
application and it cannot be removed, the application may attempt to  
copy it to another location using the Mac OS X 'ditto' utility. The  
'ditto' utility is called in an insecure manner and the responsible  
function fails to sanitize the file name allowing an attacker to  
include arbitrary commands in the file name that will be executed in  
the context of ClamAV.


This can allow an attacker to gain unauthorized access to an affected  
computer. It should be noted that the exploitation of vulnerability  
is only possible when a malicious file is copied.


ClamAV versions 0.80rc4 to 0.84rc2 to are affected by this issue.
