Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2005-1922 is an old ClamAV denial-of-service issue. A specially crafted MS-Expand file could make vulnerable ClamAV versions consume file descriptors and memory, potentially disrupting antivirus scanning on mail or file-processing systems. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems running ClamAV before 0.86, especially mail gateways, file upload scanners, or storage systems that scan untrusted files and attachments. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless affected scanners still process untrusted files. Business urgency rises if old ClamAV systems protect email, uploads, or shared storage because scanning disruption can weaken malware controls. Mitigation focus: Upgrade ClamAV to version 0.86 or later where applicable.; Apply fixed distribution packages from the operating system vendor.; Check Debian DSA-737 if maintaining affected Debian-era systems..
