How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:11 clamav to version 0.86.1-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream clamav package and not the clamav package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

The MS-Expand file handling in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.86 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (file descriptor and memory consumption) via a crafted file that causes repeated errors in the cli_msexpand function.
