CVE-2005-3501

The cabd_find function in cabd.c of the libmspack library (mspack) for Clam AntiVirus (ClamAV) before 0.87.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted CAB file that causes cabd_find to be called with a zero length.

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (3.59%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
