Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV), which could be exploited by attackers or malware to cause a denial of service. These issues are due to errors when processing malformed multipart/mixed contents or base64-encoded MIME attachments, which could be exploited by attackers to crash a vulnerable application, creating a denial of service condition.
