-ClamAV 0.99.2 is a release of bug fixes and minor enhancements. |
|
| 4 |
+Welcome to ClamAV 0.99.3. In this release, we have included many code |
|
| 5 |
+submissions from the ClamAV community: |
|
| 6 |
+ - Interfaces to Prelude open source SIEM. |
|
| 7 |
+ - Visual Studio 2015 for building Microsoft Windows binaries. |
|
| 8 |
+ - Support libmspack code internally or as a shared object library. |
|
| 9 |
+ - Linking with openssl 1.1.0. |
|
| 10 |
+ - Numerous code patches, typos, and compiler warnings. |
|
| 5 | 11 |
|
| 6 |
- - fix ups improving the reliability of several ClamAV file parsers. |
|
| 7 |
- - sigtool now decodes file type signatures (e.g., daily.ftm CVD file). |
|
| 8 |
- - now supporting libpcre2 in addition to libpcre. |
|
| 9 |
- - systemd support for clamd and freshclam. Patch provided by |
|
| 10 |
- Andreas Cadhalpun. |
|
| 11 |
- - fixed builds on Mac OS X 10.10 & 10.11. |
|
| 12 |
- - improved debug info for certificate metadata. |
|
| 13 |

|
| 14 |
- - fixed some freshclam functionality when using private mirrors. |
|
| 15 |
- - clamd refinements of open file limitations on Solaris. Patch by |
|
| 16 |
- Jim Morris |
|
| 17 |

+Additionally, we have introduced important changes and new features in |
|
| 13 |
+ClamAV 0.99.3, including: |
|
| 14 |
+ - Deprecating internal LLVM code support. The configure script has changed |
|
| 15 |
+ to search the system for an installed instance of the LLVM development |
|
| 16 |
+ libraries, and to otherwise use the bytecode interpreter for ClamAV |
|
| 17 |
+ bytecode signatures. Using the deprecated internal LLVM code is possible |
|
| 18 |
+ with the command: './configure --with-system-llvm=no' |
|
| 19 |
+ - Compute and check PE import table hash (a.k.a. "imphash") signatures. |
|
| 20 |
+ - Support file property collection and analysis for MHTML files. |
|
| 21 |
+ - Raw scanning of PostScript files. |
|
| 22 |
+ - Fix clamsubmit to use the new virus and false positive submission web |
|
| 23 |
+ interface. |
|
| 24 |
+ - Optionally, flag files with the virus "Heuristic.Limits.Exceeded" when |
|
| 25 |
+ size limitations are exceeded. |
|
| 26 |
+ - Improve decoders for PDF files. |
