Amendment

The Debian security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Debian:10.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream clamav package and not the clamav package as distributed by Debian.

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.
