The vulnerability is due to inefficient MIME parsing routines that result in extremely long scan times of specially formatted email files. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted email file to an affected device. An exploit could allow the malicious user to cause the ClamAV scanning process to scan the crafted email file indefinitely, resulting in a denial of service condition.
