Re: AMaViS virus scanner for Linux - root exploit

The AMaViS incoming-mail virus scanning utility (available at <A TARGET=nonlocal
HREF="/external/http://aachalon.de/AMaViS/">http://aachalon.de/AMaViS/</A>) for Linux has
problems.
I tried to contact the maintainer of the package
(Christian
Bricart) on June 26, again several times over the course
of
the last month, but I have not received anything from him and the AMaViS website does not yet acknowledge the
problem
or provide a fix.
Sorry .. I have away from my terminal the last few weeks... Usually every mail gets an reply within max. two days delay.. (esp. when they are _that_ urgent) Now to the possible exploit: <A TARGET=nonlocal HREF="/external/http://aachalon.de/AMaViS/">AMaViS 0.2.0-pre5</a> has been released, which should fix the problem using your (slightly modified) patch...
