\section{Introduction}
Clam AntiVirus is an open source (GPL) anti-virus toolkit for UNIX,
designed especially for e-mail scanning on mail gateways. It provides
a number of utilities including a flexible and scalable multi-threaded
daemon, a command line scanner and advanced tool for automatic database
updates. The core of the package is an anti-virus engine available in a
form of shared library.

\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{clamav-announce*lists.clamav.net} - info about new versions,
moderated\footnote{Subscribers are not allowed to post to the mailing
list}.
\item \textbf{clamav-users*lists.clamav.net} - user questions
\item \textbf{clamav-devel*lists.clamav.net} - technical discussions
\item \textbf{clamav-virusdb*lists.clamav.net} - database update announcements, moderated
\end{itemize}
\noindent You can subscribe and search the mailing list archives at:
\url{http://www.clamav.net/support/ml/}\\
Alternatively you can try asking on the \verb+#clamav+ IRC channel - launch
your favourite irc client and type:
\begin{verbatim}
/server irc.freenode.net
/join #clamav
\end{verbatim}
\subsection{Virus submitting}
If you have got a virus which is not detected by your ClamAV with the latest
databases, please submit the sample at our website:
\begin{center}
\url{http://www.clamav.net/sendvirus}
\end{center}
\section{Base package}
\subsection{Supported platforms}
Most popular UNIX operating systems are supported. Clam AntiVirus 0.90 was
tested on:
\begin{itemize}
\item{GNU/Linux}
\item{Solaris}
\item{FreeBSD}
\item{OpenBSD} \footnote{Installation from a port is recommended.}
\item{Mac OS X}
\end{itemize}
Some features may not be available on your operating system. If you
are successfully running Clam AntiVirus on a system not listed above
please let us know.
\subsection{Binary packages}
You can find the up-to-date list of binary packages at our website:
\url{http://www.clamav.net/download/packages/}
\section{Installation}
\subsection{Requirements}
The following elements are required to compile ClamAV:
\begin{itemize}
\item zlib and zlib-devel packages
\item gcc compiler suite (tested with 2.9x, 3.x and 4.x series)
\end{itemize}
The following packages are optional but \textbf{highly recommended}:
\begin{itemize}
\item bzip2 and bzip2-devel library
\item GNU MP 3\\
It's very important to install the GMP package because it allows
\verb+freshclam+ to verify the digital signatures of the virus
databases and scripted updates. If freshclam was compiled without GMP
support it will display "SECURITY WARNING: NO SUPPORT FOR DIGITAL
SIGNATURES" on every update. You can download GNU MP at
\url{http://www.swox.com/gmp/}\\
A note for Solaris/SPARC users: you must set the \emph{ABI} system
variable to 32 (e.g. \verb+setenv ABI 32+) before running the
configuration script of GMP.
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Installing on shell account}
To install ClamAV locally on an unprivileged shell account you need not
create any additional users or groups. Assuming your home directory is
\verb+/home/gary+ you should build it as follows:
\begin{verbatim}
$ ./configure --prefix=/home/gary/clamav --disable-clamav
$ make; make install
\end{verbatim}
To test your installation execute:
\begin{verbatim}
$ ~/clamav/bin/freshclam
$ ~/clamav/bin/clamscan ~
\end{verbatim}
The \verb+--disable-clamav+ switch disables the check for existence of
the \emph{clamav} user and group but \verb+clamscan+ would still require an
unprivileged account to work in a superuser mode.
\subsection{Adding new system user and group}
If you are installing ClamAV for the first time, you have to add a new
user and group to your system: \footnote{Cygwin note: If you have not
/etc/passwd you can skip this point}
\begin{verbatim}
# groupadd clamav
# useradd -g clamav -s /bin/false -c "Clam AntiVirus" clamav
\end{verbatim}
Consult a system manual if your OS has not \emph{groupadd} and
\emph{useradd} utilities. \textbf{Don't forget to lock access to the
account!}
\subsection{Compilation of base package}
Once you have created the clamav user and group, please extract the archive:
\begin{verbatim}
$ zcat clamav-x.yz.tar.gz | tar xvf -
$ cd clamav-x.yz
\end{verbatim}
Assuming you want to install the configuration files in /etc, configure
and build the software as follows:
\begin{verbatim}
$ ./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
$ make
$ su -c "make install"
\end{verbatim}
In the last step the software is installed into the /usr/local directory
and the config files into /etc. \textbf{WARNING: Never enable the SUID
or SGID bits for Clam AntiVirus binaries.}
\subsection{Compilation with clamav-milter enabled}
libmilter and its development files are required. To enable clamav-milter,
configure ClamAV with
\begin{verbatim}
$ ./configure --enable-milter
\end{verbatim}
\section{Configuration}
\subsection{clamd}
Before you start using the daemon you have to edit the configuration file
(in other case \verb+clamd+ won't run):
\begin{verbatim}
$ clamd
ERROR: Please edit the example config file /etc/clamd.conf.
\end{verbatim}
This shows the location of the default configuration file. The format and
options of this file are fully described in the \emph{clamd.conf(5)}
manual. The config file is well commented and configuration should be
straightforward.
\subsubsection{On-access scanning}
One of the interesting features of \verb+clamd+ is on-access scanning
based on the Dazuko module, available from \url{http://dazuko.org/}.
\textbf{This module is not required to run clamd - furthermore, you
shouldn't run Dazuko on production systems}. At the moment Dazuko is
avaliable for Linux and FreeBSD, but the following information only covers
Linux.
\begin{verbatim}
$ tar zxpvf dazuko-a.b.c.tar.gz
$ cd dazuko-a.b.c
$ make dazuko
or
$ make dazuko-smp (for smp kernels)
$ su
# insmod dazuko.o
# cp dazuko.o /lib/modules/`uname -r`/misc
# depmod -a
\end{verbatim}
Depending on your Linux distribution you may need to add a "dazuko" entry to
\emph{/etc/modules} or run the module during system's startup by adding
\begin{verbatim}
/sbin/modprobe dazuko
\end{verbatim}
to some startup file. You must also create a new device:
\begin{verbatim}
$ cat /proc/devices | grep dazuko
254 dazuko
$ su -c "mknod -m 600 /dev/dazuko c 254 0"
\end{verbatim}
Now configure Clamuko in \verb+clamd.conf+ and read the \ref{clamuko}
section.
\subsection{clamav-milter}
Nigel Horne's \verb+clamav-milter+ is a very efficient email scanner
designed for Sendmail. It's written entirely in C and only depends on
\verb+libclamav+ or \verb+clamd+. You can find detailed installation
instructions in the \verb+INSTALL+ file that comes with the clamav-milter
sources. Basically, to connect it with Sendmail add the following lines to
\verb+/etc/mail/sendmail.mc+:
\begin{verbatim}
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`clmilter',`S=local:/var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock,
F=, T=S:4m;R:4m')dnl
define(`confINPUT_MAIL_FILTERS', `clmilter')
\end{verbatim}
If you're running it in \verb+--external+ mode, check entry in
\verb+clamd.conf+ of the form:
\begin{verbatim}
LocalSocket /var/run/clamav/clamd.sock
\end{verbatim}
Start clamav-milter
\begin{verbatim}
/usr/local/sbin/clamav-milter -lo /var/run/clamav/clmilter.sock
\end{verbatim}
and restart sendmail.
\subsection{Testing}
Try to scan recursively the source directory:
\begin{verbatim}
$ clamscan -r -l scan.txt clamav-x.yz
\end{verbatim}
It should find some test files in the clamav-x.yz/test directory.
The scan result will be saved in the \verb+scan.txt+ log file
\footnote{To get more info on clamscan options run 'man clamscan'}.
To test \verb+clamd+, start it and use \verb+clamdscan+ (or instead connect
directly to its socket and run the SCAN command):
\begin{verbatim}
$ clamdscan -l scan.txt clamav-x.yz
\end{verbatim}
Please note that the scanned files must be accessible by the user running
\verb+clamd+ or you will get an error.
\subsection{Setting up auto-updating}
\verb+freshclam+ is the automatic database update tool for Clam AntiVirus.
It can work in two modes:
\begin{itemize}
\item interactive - on demand from command line
\item daemon - silently in the background
\end{itemize}
\verb+freshclam+ is advanced tool: it supports scripted updates (instead
of transferring the whole CVD file at each update it only transfers the
differences between the latest and the current database via a special
script), database version checks through DNS, proxy servers (with
authentication), digital signatures and various error scenarios.
\textbf{Quick test: run freshclam (as superuser) with no parameters
and check the output.} If everything is OK you may create the log file in
/var/log (owned by \emph{clamav} or another user \verb+freshclam+ will be
running as):
\begin{verbatim}
# touch /var/log/freshclam.log
# chmod 600 /var/log/freshclam.log
# chown clamav /var/log/freshclam.log
\end{verbatim}
Now you \emph{should} edit the configuration file \verb+freshclam.conf+
and point the \emph{UpdateLogFile} directive to the log file. Finally, to
run \verb+freshclam+ in the daemon mode, execute:
\begin{verbatim}
# freshclam -d
\end{verbatim}
The other way is to use the \emph{cron} daemon. You have to add the
following line to the crontab of \textbf{root} or \textbf{clamav} user:
{\small
\begin{verbatim}
N * * * * /usr/local/bin/freshclam --quiet
\end{verbatim}}
\noindent to check for a new database every hour. \textbf{N should be a
number between 3 and 57 of your choice. Please don't choose any multiple
of 10, because there are already too many clients using those time slots.}
Proxy settings are only configurable via the configuration file and
\verb+freshclam+ will require strict permission settings for the config
file when \verb+HTTPProxyPassword+ is turned on.
\begin{verbatim}
HTTPProxyServer myproxyserver.com
HTTPProxyPort 1234
HTTPProxyUsername myusername
HTTPProxyPassword mypass
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Closest mirrors}
The \verb+DatabaseMirror+ directive in the config file specifies the
database server \verb+freshclam+ will attempt (up to \verb+MaxAttempts+
times) to download the database from. The default database mirror
is \url{database.clamav.net} but multiple directives are allowed.
In order to download the database from the closest mirror you should
configure \verb+freshclam+ to use \url{db.xx.clamav.net} where xx
represents your country code. For example, if your server is in "Ascension
Island" you should have the following lines included in \verb+freshclam.conf+:
\begin{verbatim}
DNSDatabaseInfo current.cvd.clamav.net
DatabaseMirror db.ac.clamav.net
DatabaseMirror database.clamav.net
\end{verbatim}
The second entry acts as a fallback in case the connection to the first
mirror fails for some reason. The full list of two-letters country codes
is available at \url{http://www.iana.org/cctld/cctld-whois.htm}
\section{Usage}
\subsection{Clam daemon}\label{clamd}
\verb+clamd+ is a multi-threaded daemon that uses \emph{libclamav}
to scan files for viruses. It may work in one or both modes listening on:
\begin{itemize}
\item Unix (local) socket
\item TCP socket
\end{itemize}
The daemon is fully configurable via the \verb+clamd.conf+ file
\footnote{man 5 clamd.conf}. \verb+clamd+ recognizes the following commands:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{PING}\\
Check the daemon's state (should reply with "PONG").
\item \textbf{VERSION}\\
Print program and database versions.
\item \textbf{RELOAD}\\
Reload the databases.
\item \textbf{SHUTDOWN}\\
Perform a clean exit.
\item \textbf{SCAN file/directory}\\
Scan file or directory (recursively) with archive support
enabled (a full path is required).
\item \textbf{RAWSCAN file/directory}\\
Scan file or directory (recursively) with archive and special file
support disabled (a full path is required).
\item \textbf{CONTSCAN file/directory}\\
Scan file or directory (recursively) with archive support
enabled and don't stop the scanning when a virus is found.
\item \textbf{MULTISCAN file/directory}\\
Scan file in a standard way or scan directory (recursively) using
multiple threads (to make the scanning faster on SMP machines).
\item \textbf{STREAM}\\
Scan stream: \verb+clamd+ will return a new port number you should
connect to and send data to scan.
\item \textbf{SESSION, END}\\
Start/end a \verb+clamd+ session - you can do multiple commands
per TCP session (WARNING: due to the \verb+clamd+ implementation the
\textbf{RELOAD} command will break the session).
\end{itemize}
and reacts on the special signals:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{SIGTERM} - perform a clean exit
\item \textbf{SIGHUP} - reopen the log file
\item \textbf{SIGUSR2} - reload the database
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Clam\textbf{d}scan}
\verb+clamdscan+ is a simple \verb+clamd+ client. In many cases you can
use it as a \verb+clamscan+ replacement however you must remember that:
\begin{itemize}
\item it only depends on \verb+clamd+
\item although it accepts the same command line options as
\verb+clamscan+ most of them are ignored because they must be
enabled directly in \verb+clamd+, i.e. \verb+clamd.conf+
\item scanned files must be accessible for \verb+clamd+
\item it can't use external unpackers
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Clamuko}\label{clamuko}
Clamuko is a special thread in \verb+clamd+ that performs on-access
scanning under Linux and FreeBSD and shares internal virus database
with the daemon. \textbf{You must follow some important rules when
using it:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Always stop the daemon cleanly - using the SHUTDOWN command or
the\\ SIGTERM signal. In other case you can lose access
to protected files until the system is restarted.
\item Never protect the directory your mail-scanner software
uses for attachment unpacking. Access to all infected
files will be automatically blocked and the scanner (including
\verb+clamd+!) will not be able to detect any viruses. In the
result \textbf{all infected mails may be delivered.}
\end{itemize}
For example, to protect the whole system add the following lines to
\verb+clamd.conf+:
\begin{verbatim}
ClamukoScanOnAccess
ClamukoIncludePath /
ClamukoExcludePath /proc
ClamukoExcludePath /temporary/dir/of/your/mail/scanning/software
\end{verbatim}
You can also use clamuko to protect files on Samba/Netatalk but a far
more better and safe idea is to use the \textbf{samba-vscan} module.
NFS is not supported because Dazuko doesn't intercept NFS access calls.
\subsection{Output format}
\subsubsection{clamscan}
\verb+clamscan+ writes all regular program messages to \textbf{stdout} and
errors/warnings to \textbf{stderr}. You can use the option \verb+--stdout+
to redirect all program messages to \textbf{stdout}. Warnings and error
messages from \verb+libclamav+ are always printed to \textbf{stderr}.
A typical output from \verb+clamscan+ looks like this:
\begin{verbatim}
/tmp/test/removal-tool.exe: Worm.Sober FOUND
/tmp/test/md5.o: OK
/tmp/test/blob.c: OK
/tmp/test/message.c: OK
/tmp/test/error.hta: VBS.Inor.D FOUND
\end{verbatim}
When a virus is found its name is printed between the \verb+filename:+ and
\verb+FOUND+ strings. In case of archives the scanner depends on libclamav
and only prints the first virus found within an archive:
\begin{verbatim}
zolw@localhost:/tmp$ clamscan malware.zip
malware.zip: Worm.Mydoom.U FOUND
\end{verbatim}
\emph{\textbf{TIP:} You can force clamscan to list all infected
files in an archive using --no-archive (this option disables
transparent decompressors built into libclamav) and enabling external
decompressors: --unzip --unrar...}.\\[4pt]
\begin{verbatim}
zolw@localhost:/tmp$ clamscan --no-archive --unzip malware.zip
Archive: /tmp/malware.zip
inflating: test1.exe
inflating: test2.exe
inflating: test3.exe
/tmp/clamav-77e7bfdbb2d3872b/test1.exe: Worm.Mydoom.U FOUND
/tmp/clamav-77e7bfdbb2d3872b/test2.exe: Trojan.Taskkill.A FOUND
/tmp/clamav-77e7bfdbb2d3872b/test3.exe: Worm.Nyxem.D FOUND
/tmp/malware.zip: Infected.Archive FOUND
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{clamd}
The output format of \verb+clamd+ is very similar to \verb+clamscan+.
\begin{verbatim}
zolw@localhost:~$ telnet localhost 3310
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
SCAN /home/zolw/test
/home/zolw/test/clam.exe: ClamAV-Test-File FOUND
Connection closed by foreign host.
\end{verbatim}
In the \textbf{SCAN} mode it closes the connection when the first virus
is found.
\begin{verbatim}
SCAN /home/zolw/test/clam.zip
/home/zolw/test/clam.zip: ClamAV-Test-File FOUND
\end{verbatim}
\textbf{CONTSCAN} and \textbf{MULTISCAN} don't stop scanning in case
a virus is found.\\
Error messages are printed in the following format:
\begin{verbatim}
SCAN /no/such/file
/no/such/file: Can't stat() the file. ERROR
\end{verbatim}
\section{LibClamAV}
Libclamav provides an easy and effective way to add a virus protection into
your software. The library is thread-safe and transparently recognizes and
scans within archives, mail files, MS Office document files, executables
and other special formats.
\subsection{Licence}
Libclamav is licensed under the GNU GPL v2 licence. This means you are
\textbf{not allowed} to link commercial, close-source applications
against it\footnote{You can still use clamd or clamscan instead}.
All software using libclamav must be GPL compliant.
\subsection{Supported formats}
\subsubsection{Executables}
The library has a built-in support for 32/64-bit Portable Executable files
and 32-bit ELF files. Additionally, it can handle PE files compressed or
obfuscated with the following tools:
\begin{itemize}
\item UPX (all versions)
\item FSG (1.3, 1.31, 1.33, 2.0)
\item Petite (2.x)
\item NsPack
\item wwpack32 (1.20)
\item MEW
\item Upack
\item SUE
\item Y0da Cryptor (1.3)
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Mail files}
Libclamav can handle almost every mail file format including TNEF
(winmail.dat) attachments.
\subsubsection{Archives and compressed files}
The following archive and compression formats are supported by internal
handlers:
\begin{itemize}
\item Zip (+ SFX)
\item RAR (+ SFX)
\item Tar
\item Gzip
\item Bzip2
\item MS OLE2
\item MS Cabinet Files (+ SFX)
\item MS CHM (Compiled HTML)
\item MS SZDD compression format
\item BinHex
\item SIS (SymbianOS packages)
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Documents}
The most popular file formats are supported:
\begin{itemize}
\item MS Office and MacOffice files
\item RTF
\item PDF
\item HTML
\end{itemize}
\subsubsection{Others}
Libclamav can handle various obfuscators, encoders, files vulnerable to
security risks such as:
\begin{itemize}
\item JPEG (exploit detection)
\item RIFF (exploit detection)
\item uuencode
\item ScrEnc obfuscation
\item CryptFF
\end{itemize}
\subsection{Hardware acceleration}
ClamAV 0.90 comes with support for Sensory Networks' NodalCore
acceleration technology. Thanks to specialized Security Processing Unit
built into NodalCore C-Series accelerators it is possible to achieve more
performance than is possible by just adding general purpose CPUs.
Additionally, Sensory Networks' CorePAKT technology ensures that compiled
signature databases occupy a memory footprint smaller than any other
competing technology on the market - in many cases by up to 90\%. The
ability to store multiple databases in compressed format whilst still
achieving high throughputs makes NodalCore ideal for applications
demanding high performance on large signature databases such as ClamAV.\\
For more information please visit \url{http://www.clamav.net/nodalcore/}
\subsection{API}
\subsubsection{Header file}
Every program using libclamav must include the header file \verb+clamav.h+:
\begin{verbatim}
#include <clamav.h>
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Database loading}
The following set of functions provides an interface for loading
the virus database:
\begin{verbatim}
const char *cl_retdbdir(void);
int cl_load(const char *path, struct cl_engine **engine,
unsigned int *signo, unsigned int options);
\end{verbatim}
\verb+cl_retdbdir+ returns the default (hardcoded) path to the directory
with ClamAV databases.
\verb+cl_load+ loads a single database file or all databases from a
directory (if \verb+path+ points to a directory). The second argument
is used for passing in the engine structure which should be previously
initialized with NULL. A number of loaded signatures will be \textbf{added}
to \verb+signo+ \footnote{Remember to initialize the virus counter
variable with 0.}. The last argument can pass the following flags:
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{CL\_DB\_STDOPT}\\
This is an alias for a recommended set of scan options.
\item \textbf{CL\_DB\_NCORE}\\
Initialize NodalCore and load the hardware database (if applicable).
\item \textbf{CL\_DB\_PHISHING}\\
Load phishing signatures.
\item \textbf{CL\_DB\_PHISHING\_URLS}\\
Initialize the phishing detection module and load .wdb and .pdb files.
\end{itemize}
\verb+cl_load+ returns 0 (\verb+CL_SUCCESS+) on success and a non-negative
value on failure.
\begin{verbatim}
...
struct cl_engine *engine = NULL;
unsigned int sigs = 0;
int ret;
ret = cl_load(cl_retdbdir(), &engine, &sigs, CL_DB_STDOPT);
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Error handling}
Use \verb+cl_strerror+ to convert error codes into human readable messages.
The function returns a statically allocated string:
\begin{verbatim}
if(ret) {
printf("cl_load() error: %s\n", cl_strerror(ret));
exit(1);
}
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Engine structure}
When all required databases are loaded you should prepare the detection
engine by calling \verb+cl_build+. In the case of failure you should
free the memory occupied by the engine with \verb+cl_free+:
\begin{verbatim}
int cl_build(struct cl_engine *engine);
void cl_free(struct cl_engine *engine);
\end{verbatim}
In our example:
\begin{verbatim}
if((ret = cl_build(engine))) {
printf("cl_build() error: %s\n", cl_strerror(ret));
cl_free(engine);
exit(1);
}
\end{verbatim}
\subsection{Database reloading}
The most important thing is to keep the internal instance of the database
up to date. You can watch database changes with the \verb+cl_stat+
family of functions.
\begin{verbatim}
int cl_statinidir(const char *dirname, struct cl_stat *dbstat);
int cl_statchkdir(const struct cl_stat *dbstat);
int cl_statfree(struct cl_stat *dbstat);
\end{verbatim}
Initialization:
\begin{verbatim}
...
struct cl_stat dbstat;
memset(&dbstat, 0, sizeof(struct cl_stat));
cl_statinidir(dbdir, &dbstat);
\end{verbatim}
To check for a change you just need to call \verb+cl_statchkdir+ and check
its return value:
\begin{verbatim}
if(cl_statchkdir(&dbstat) == 1) {
reload_database...;
cl_statfree(&dbstat);
cl_statinidir(cl_retdbdir(), &dbstat);
}
\end{verbatim}
Remember to reset the \verb+cl_stat+ structure after reload.
\subsubsection{Data scan functions}
It's possible to scan a file or descriptor using:
\begin{verbatim}
int cl_scanfile(const char *filename, const char **virname,
unsigned long int *scanned, const struct cl_engine *engine,
const struct cl_limits *limits, unsigned int options);
int cl_scandesc(int desc, const char **virname, unsigned
long int *scanned, const struct cl_engine *engine, const
struct cl_limits *limits, unsigned int options);
\end{verbatim}
Both functions will save a virus name under the pointer \verb+virname+,
the virus name is part of the engine structure and must not be released
directly. If the third argument (\verb+scanned+) is not NULL, the
functions will increase its value with the size of scanned data (in
\verb+CL_COUNT_PRECISION+ units). Both functions have support for archive
limits in order to protect against Denial of Service attacks.
\begin{verbatim}
struct cl_limits {
unsigned int maxreclevel; /* maximum recursion level for archives */
unsigned int maxfiles; /* maximum number of files to be scanned
* within a single archive
*/
unsigned int maxmailrec; /* maximum recursion level for mail files */
unsigned int maxratio; /* maximum compression ratio */
unsigned long int maxfilesize;/* compressed files larger than this limit
* will not be scanned
*/
unsigned short archivememlim; /* limit memory usage for some unpackers */
};
\end{verbatim}
The last argument (\verb+options+) configures the scan engine and supports
the following flags (that can be combined using bit operators):
\begin{itemize}
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_STDOPT}\\
This is an alias for a recommended set of scan options. You
should use it to make your software ready for new features
in the future versions of libclamav.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_RAW}\\
Use it alone if you want to disable support for special files.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_ARCHIVE}\\
This flag enables transparent scanning of various archive formats.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_BLOCKENCRYPTED}\\
With this flag the library will mark encrypted archives as viruses
(Encrypted.Zip, Encrypted.RAR).
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_BLOCKMAX}\\
Mark archives as viruses if \verb+maxfiles+, \verb+maxfilesize+,
or \verb+maxreclevel+ limit is reached.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_MAIL}\\
Enable support for mail files.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_MAILURL}\\
The mail scanner will download and scan URLs listed in a mail
body. This flag should not be used on loaded servers. Due to
potential problems please do not enable it by default but make
it optional.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_OLE2}\\
Enables support for OLE2 containers (used by MS Office and .msi
files).
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_PDF}\\
Enables scanning within PDF files.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_PE}\\
This flag enables deep scanning of Portable Executable files and
allows libclamav to unpack executables compressed with run-time
unpackers.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_ELF}\\
Enable support for ELF files.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_BLOCKBROKEN}\\
libclamav will try to detect broken executables and mark them as
Broken.Executable.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_HTML}\\
This flag enables HTML normalisation (including ScrEnc
decryption).
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_ALGORITHMIC}\\
Enable algorithmic detection of viruses.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_PHISHING\_DOMAINLIST}\\
Phishing module: restrict URL scanning to domains from .pdf
(RECOMMENDED).
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_PHISHING\_BLOCKSSL}\\
Phishing module: always block SSL mismatches in URLs.
\item \textbf{CL\_SCAN\_PHISHING\_BLOCKCLOAK}\\
Phishing module: always block cloaked URLs.
\end{itemize}
All functions return 0 (\verb+CL_CLEAN+) when the file seems clean,
\verb+CL_VIRUS+ when a virus is detected and another value on failure.
\begin{verbatim}
...
struct cl_limits limits;
const char *virname;
memset(&limits, 0, sizeof(struct cl_limits));
limits.maxfiles = 1000; /* max files */
limits.maxfilesize = 10 * 1048576; /* maximum size of archived or
* compressed file (files exceeding
* this limit will be ignored)
*/
limits.maxreclevel = 5; /* maximum recursion level for archives */
limits.maxmailrec = 64; /* maximum recursion level for mail files */
limits.maxratio = 200; /* maximum compression ratio */
if((ret = cl_scanfile("/tmp/test.exe", &virname, NULL, engine,
&limits, CL_STDOPT)) == CL_VIRUS) {
printf("Virus detected: %s\n", virname);
} else {
printf("No virus detected.\n");
if(ret != CL_CLEAN)
printf("Error: %s\n", cl_strerror(ret));
}
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Memory}
Because the engine structure consumes a few megabytes of system memory, you
should release it with \verb+cl_free+ if you no longer need to scan files.
\subsubsection{clamav-config}
Use \verb+clamav-config+ to check compilation information for libclamav.
\begin{verbatim}
zolw@localhost:~$ clamav-config --libs
-L/usr/local/lib -lz -lbz2 -lgmp -lpthread
zolw@localhost:~$ clamav-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include -g -O2
\end{verbatim}
\subsubsection{Example}
You will find an example scanner application in the clamav sources
(/example). Don't forget that all programs based on libclamav must be
linked against it:
\begin{verbatim}
gcc -Wall ex1.c -o ex1 -lclamav
\end{verbatim}
\subsection{CVD format}
CVD (ClamAV Virus Database) is a digitally signed tarball containing
one or more databases. The header is a 512-bytes long string with colon
separated fields:
\begin{verbatim}
ClamAV-VDB:build time:version:number of signatures:functionality
level required:MD5 checksum:digital signature:builder name:build time (sec)
\end{verbatim}
\verb+sigtool --info+ displays detailed information on CVD files:
\begin{verbatim}
zolw@localhost:/usr/local/share/clamav$ sigtool -i daily.cvd
Build time: 11 Feb 2007 19-28 +0000
Version: 2553
# of signatures: 6063
Functionality level: 9
Builder: ccordes
MD5: 7f337b409249e11dea3effb04dd352f2
