Looks like you may have installed or upgraded your clamav manually instead of using the Manage Plugins interface.

The notification is probably from the WHM > Home > Server Contacts > Contact Manager > ClamAV Upgrade Changes

This security check doesn't only look for cPanel provided clamav binaries, so as the previous commenter pointed out, it's likely hitting on clamav binaries not provided by cPanel. I have the following RPM's for clamav:
Code:
# rpm -qa|grep clam
cpanel-clamav-0.99.2-2.cp1164.x86_64
cpanel-clamav-virusdefs-0.99.2-2.cp1164.x86_64

So how we can install clamav without Manage Plugins interface?

I have the following RPM's for clamav:
Code:
[root@na ~]# rpm -qa|grep clam
cpanel-clamav-virusdefs-0.99.3-1.cp1170.x86_64
cpanel-clamav-0.99.3-1.cp1170.x86_64
[root@na ~]#

Are you asking how to install via command line or reporting that the WHM > Manage Plugins interface is not present? To install via command line, you may run the commands below:
Code:
# /scripts/update_local_rpm_versions --edit target_settings.clamav installed
# /scripts/check_cpanel_rpms --targets clamav --fix
You can also verify the package integrity as below:
Code:
# rpm -qa ^cpanel-clamav* -V
