Package: clamav-daemon Severity: important Tags: security upstream The command VERSION, sent to the daemon, makes the daemon open the database file on disk and output the version of the database file on disk. This might, however, be a version different to the one that is actually loaded.
In my opinion, VERSION should return the version of the database that the daemon is actually using. Since this is an upstream issue, I am tagging the bug appropriately. The security tag is used because this issue might lead to people thinking they are secure because VERSION reports the current database release. The daemon might actually be using an older version.
