ClamAV before 0.93 allows remote attackers to bypass the scanning enging via a RAR file with an invalid version number, which cannot be parsed by ClamAV but can be extracted by Winrar.

Security readout for executives and security teams

ClamAV before 0.93 could miss malicious content inside a malformed RAR archive. The file may be rejected by ClamAV’s parser but still extractable by WinRAR, creating a security-scanning bypass rather than direct code execution. Exposure is most likely in legacy mail gateways, file-upload scanners, or antivirus pipelines still running ClamAV before 0.93 or old downstream packages from affected vendors. Treat as a legacy-control weakness. It is important if old ClamAV still protects email, uploads, or file exchange, but the bundle does not support emergency active-exploitation claims. Mitigation focus: Upgrade ClamAV to version 0.93 or later.; Check OS vendor advisories for patched ClamAV packages.; Prioritize internet-facing mail and file-ingestion scanning paths..
