Hi!

FYI:

ClamAV 0.98.6 release notes list several issues which looks like security fixes but only one CVE mentioned.

ChangeLog lists bugzilla numbers but the bugs are not yet public.

Relevant commit are not yet in github repo but the diff between 0.98.6 branch and the released tarball is quite small and seems to contain almost only relevant fixes.
