The Abingdon, England-based company said that Sophos Anti-Virus can potentially be attacked by a buffer overflow, which knocks out a program by flooding it with data. A patch has already been created for Sophos Antivirus 4.5.4 and for most versions of Sophos Antivirus 3.96.0. An update for Sophos Anti-Virus Small Business Edition will be released on Friday, and all other versions will be fixed within two weeks, the antivirus maker said.
"Although theoretically a risk, Sophos has not seen any examples of malware attempting to exploit this vulnerability," the company said in its advisory.
