Descriptions

The rfc2231 function in message.c in libclamav in ClamAV before 0.93 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted message that produces a string that is not null terminated, which triggers a buffer over-read.

La función rfc2231 en message.c en libclamav de ClamAV anterior 0.93, permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de un mensaje manipulado que produce una cadena que no termina en null, lo que inicia un desbordamiento de búfer de lectura.
