Doc Text:
A vulnerability has been discovered in ClamAV related to its processing of Universal Disk Format (UDF) files. This flaw involves a memory over-read that can lead to a crash of the ClamAV scanning process. Given that ClamAV is frequently used to scan untrusted input received over a network (for example, email attachments and web downloads), this vulnerability can be considered exploitable via a remote attack vector, potentially leading to a denial of service against the scanning service.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-06-18 17:01:25 UTC
A vulnerability in Universal Disk Format (UDF) processing of ClamAV could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device.

This vulnerability is due to a memory overread during UDF file scanning. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by submitting a crafted file containing UDF content to be scanned by ClamAV on an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to terminate the ClamAV scanning process, resulting in a DoS condition on the affected software.
