Name : clamav Product : Fedora 20 Version : 0.98.5 Release : 1.fc20 URL : http://www.clamav.net Summary : End-user tools for the Clam Antivirus scanner Description : Clam AntiVirus is an anti-virus toolkit for UNIX. The main purpose of this software is the integration with mail servers (attachment scanning). The package provides a flexible and scalable multi-threaded daemon, a command line scanner, and a tool for automatic updating via Internet. The programs are based on a shared library distributed with the Clam AntiVirus package, which you can use with your own software. The virus database is based on the virus database from OpenAntiVirus, but contains additional signatures (including signatures for popular polymorphic viruses, too) and is KEPT UP TO DATE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: ClamAV 0.98.5 ============= ClamAV 0.98.5 also includes these new features and bug fixes: * Support for the XDP file format and extracting, decoding, and scanning PDF files within XDP files. Addition of shared library support for LLVM versions 3.1 - 3.5 for the purpose of just-in-time(JIT) compilation of ClamAV bytecode signatures. Andreas Cadhalpun submitted the patch implementing this support. * Enhancements to the clambc command line utility to assist ClamAV bytecode signature authors by providing introspection into compiled bytecode programs. * Resolution of many of the warning messages from ClamAV compilation. * Improved detection of malicious PE files. * Security fix for ClamAV crash when using 'clamscan -a'. This issue was identified by Kurt Siefried of Red Hat. * Security fix for ClamAV crash when scanning maliciously crafted yoda's crypter files.

Thanks to Reinhard Max for supplying the patch. * Bug fixes and other feature enhancements.
