One of the antivirus engines depends on a signature pattern from a database to identify malicious files and viruses; the antivirus bypass exploit looks to alter the file being scanned so it is not detected." } ] }, "problemtype" : { "problemtype_data" : [ { "description" : [ { "lang" : "eng", "value" : "AV Bypass" } ] } ] }, "references" : { "reference_data" : [ { "name" : "https://support.symantec.com/content/unifiedweb/en_US/article.SYMSA1468.html", "refsource" : "CONFIRM", "url" : "https://support.symantec.com/content/unifiedweb/en_US/article.SYMSA1468.html" }, { "name" : "105918", "refsource" : "BID", "url" : "http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/105918" } ] } }
