School boy error on my part not providing the version information. My bad!

# clamd -V
ClamAV 0.103.3/26461/Tue Feb 22 09:28:23 2022

I think you're on to something with thinking this is a bug which may have 
already been resolved.

https://blog.clamav.net/2021/11/clamav-01034-and-01041-patch-releases.html
 ---------------------------
Other fixes backported from 0.104.0:
ClamOnAcc: Fixed a socket file descriptor leak that could result in a crash 
when all available file descriptors are exhausted.
---------------------------

< Debian specific >
I check the test host in question and it didn't have the bullseye-updates repo 
enabled.

Added the following to /etc/apt/sources.list, then did a apt-get update && 
apt-get upgrade and now I'm on 0.103.5

---------------------------
deb http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main
deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian bullseye-updates main
---------------------------

---------------------------
# clamd -V
ClamAV 0.103.5/26461/Tue Feb 22 09:28:23 2022
---------------------------

Fingers crossed it resolve the issue. I'll do my best to feed back in a few 
days.

Thanks for you assistance.

Steve
