0.98.5
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
Welcome to ClamAV 0.98.5! ClamAV 0.98.5 includes important new features
|
|
for collecting and analyzing file properties. Software developers and
|
|
analysts may collect file property meta data using the ClamAV API for
|
|
subsequent analysis by ClamAV bytecode programs. Using these features
|
|
will require that libjson-c is installed, but otherwise libjson-c is not
|
|
needed.
|
|
|
|
Look for our upcoming series of blog posts to learn more about using the
|
|
ClamAV API and bytecode facilities for collecting and analyzing file
|
|
properties.
|
|
|
|
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. This issue, as well as several other bugs
|
|
fixed in this release, were identified by Damien Millescamp of
|
|
Oppida.
|
|
- ClamAV 0.98.5 now works with OpenSSL in FIPS compliant mode.
|
|
Thanks to Reinhard Max for supplying the patch.
|
|
- Bug fixes and other feature enhancements. See Changelog or
|
