==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in ClamAV.

Software Description:
- clamav: Anti-virus utility for Unix

Details:

It was discovered that ClamAV incorrectly handled certain PDF files. A
remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause ClamAV to crash,
resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-20505)

It was discovered that ClamAV incorrectly handled logfile privileges. A
local attacker could use this issue to cause ClamAV to overwrite arbitrary
files, possibly leading to privilege escalation. (CVE-2024-20506)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
