- Victor Stinner has reported a vulnerability in ClamAV, caused due to
an error within the OLE2 parser when handling objects with malformed
FAT partitions and large property sizes. This can be exploited to
cause a DoS due to storage and CPU resource consumption by scanning
a specially crafted OLE2 file.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project has assigned the
name CVE-2007-2650 to this issue.
