Hello list

I read that Mandrake has issued a security notice for ClamAV - 
handling of base64 embedded images and zip Denial of service.  
Is SuSE going to have a similar update?   (And if not, is there 
a recommendation on updating by some other means.)

ClamAV's freshclam is complaining about being out of date -
presumably because of these reasons.
