CVE-2012-6706 concerns a VMSF_DELTA memory corruption was discovered in unrar before 5.5.5, as used in Sophos Anti-Virus Threat Detection Engine before 3.37.2 and other products, that can lead to arbitrary code execution.
<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2012-6706>.

The list of CVE's known to apply to ClamAV can be found here:
<https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-8871/product_id-15657/Clamav-Clamav.html>.

The latest scan engine is correctly shown as 0.99.2, which I believe was released over a year ago (May 2016).
