NVD Description

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

mspack/lzxd.c in libmspack 0.5alpha, as used in ClamAV 0.99.2, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (heap-based buffer overflow and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted CHM file.
