-### Bug fixes
10
+- Fix for the following vulnerability affecting 0.102.0 and 0.101.4 and prior:
11
+  - [CVE-2019-15961](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2019-15961)
12
+    A Denial-of-Service (DoS) vulnerability may occur when scanning a specially
13
+    crafted email file as a result of excessively long scan times. The issue is
14
+    resolved by implementing several maximums in parsing MIME messages and by
15
+    optimizing use of memory allocation.
16
+
17
+- Build system fixes to build clamav-milter, to correctly link with libxml2 when
18
+  detected, and to correctly detect fanotify for on-access scanning feature
19
+  support.
20
+
21
+- Signature load time is significantly reduced by changing to a more efficient
22
+  algorithm for loading signature patterns and allocating the AC trie.
23
+  Patch courtesy of Alberto Wu.

 - Introduced a new configure option to statically link libjson-c with libclamav.
13 26
   Static linking with libjson is highly recommended to prevent crashes in
14 27
   applications that use libclamav alongside another JSON parsing library.
