iDefense:

Remote exploitation of an integer overflow vulnerability in Clam AntiVirus'
ClamAV, as included in various vendors' operating system distributions, allows
attackers to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the affected
process.

The vulnerability exists within the code responsible for parsing PE files
packed with the MEW packer. During unpacking, two untrusted values are taken
directly from the file without being validated. These values are later used in
an arithmetic operation to calculate the size used to allocate a heap buffer.
This calculation can overflow, resulting in a buffer of insufficient size being
allocated. This later leads to arbitrary areas of memory being overwritten with
attacker supplied data.

Andrej, is 0.92 ready for stabling?

<Ticho> well, both klamav and Mail::ClamAV use some clamav internal functions
which shouldn't really be used outside of clamav, and those changed in this
release
