NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream clamav package and not the clamav package as distributed by Alpine. See How to fix? for Alpine:3.13 relevant fixed versions and status.

ClamAV before 0.100.1 has an HWP integer overflow with a resultant infinite loop via a crafted Hangul Word Processor file. This is in parsehwp3_paragraph() in libclamav/hwp.c.
