Descriptions
clamav-milter in ClamAV before 0.91.2, when run in black hole mode, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters that are used in a certain popen call, involving the "recipient field of sendmail."

Nikolaos Rangos discovered a vulnerability in ClamAV which exists because the recipient address extracted from email messages is not properly sanitized before being used in a call to popen() when executing sendmail (CVE-2007-4560). Also, NULL-pointer dereference errors exist within the cli_scanrtf() function in libclamav/rtf.c and Stefanos Stamatis discovered a NULL-pointer dereference vulnerability within the cli_html_normalise() function in libclamav/htmlnorm.c (CVE-2007-4510).
