In the ClamAV antivirus blog, developed by Cisco, a post has appeared about the release of version 0.102.0.
Among the changes:
- Transparent on-access scanning has been moved from clamd to a separate process called clamonacc, enabling clamd to operate without root privileges;
- The freshclam program has been redesigned with support for HTTPS and the ability to work with mirrors that handle requests on network ports, not just port 80;
- Database operations have been moved to the libfreshclam library;
- Support for working with egg archives has been added without needing the UnEgg library;
- The possibility of limiting scan time has been introduced;
- Improvements have been made in handling executable files with Authenticode digital signatures;
- Compiler warnings when building with the options '-Wall' and '-Wextra' have been eliminated;
- The ability to create bytecode signatures for unpacking Mach-O and ELF executable files has been added;
- The codebase has been reformatted using the clang-format utility;
