>Description:

As was recently reported in the BugTraq list, VBA parser in ClamAV is
contains the off-by-one overflow and can lead to the arbitrary code
execution within the clamd process.

VBA component seem to be unconditionally included to the libclamav
and OLE2 scanning is "on" by-default.

	<p>Advisory from Moritz Jodeit, November 8th, 2008:</p>
	<blockquote cite="http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/498169/30/0/threaded">
	  <p>ClamAV contains an off-by-one heap overflow vulnerability
	  in the code responsible for parsing VBA project files.
	  Successful exploitation could allow an attacker to execute
	  arbitrary code with the privileges of the `clamd' process by
	  sending an email with a prepared attachment.</p>
	  <p>A VBA project file embedded inside an OLE2 office document
	  send as an attachment can trigger the off-by-one.</p>

FreeBSD port itself is already at 0.94.1, so it is fully patched.
