Subject: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Security update: clamav-0.87.1-1

Clam AntiVirus is subject to vulnerabilities ranging from Denial of
Service to execution of arbitrary code when handling compressed
executables.  (CAN-2005-2919, CAN-2005-2920)

Clam AntiVirus is also vulnerable to integer overflows when handling
several file formats, potentially resulting in the execution of
arbitrary code.  (CAN-2005-2450)

Solution: Update to 0.87.1-1

About:
Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit for Unix. The main purpose of
this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment
scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded
daemon, a commandline scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via
Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with
the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use in your own software.

Changes:
  security fixes,
  improve scanning of zip files.
  See http://www.clamav.net/doc/0.87.1/ChangeLog and
