A clamav security update has been released for Debian GNU/Linux 8 Extended LTS to address several vulnerabilities in the ClamAV antivirus toolkit.

ELA-286-1 clamav security update

Package clamav
Version 0.102.4+dfsg-0+deb8u1
Related CVEs CVE-2020-3350 CVE-2020-3481

Several vulnerabilities have been found in the ClamAV antivirus toolkit:

CVE-2020-3350

A malicious user could trick clamscan, clamdscan or clamonacc into
moving or removing a different file than intended when those are
used with one of the --move or --remove options. This could be used
to get rid of special system files.
CVE-2020-3481

The EGG archive module was vulnerable to denial of service via NULL
pointer dereference due to improper error handling. The official
signature database avoided this problem because the signatures there
avoided the use of the EGG archive parser.
For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 0.102.4+dfsg-0+deb8u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your clamav packages.
