    Several vulnerabilities have been found in the ClamAV antivirus toolkit,
    which could result in denial of service or possibly other unspecified
    impact when processing maliciously crafted files.

    For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version
    1.4.6+dfsg-0+deb12u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your clamav packages.

    For the detailed security status of clamav please refer to
    its security tracker page at:
    https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/clamav

    Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply
    these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
