Clam AntiVirus

File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: 0.94.1

Notes: ClamAV 0.94.1 fixes some issues that were found in previous releases and includes one new feature, "Malware Statistics Gathering." This is an optional feature that allows ClamAV users optionally to submit statistics to us about what they detect in the field. We will then use these data to determine what types of malware are the most detected in the field and in what geographic area they are. It will also allow us to publish summary data on www.clamav.net where our users will be able to monitor the latest threats. You can help us by enabling SubmitDetectionStats in freshclam.conf. For more details, please refer to the ChangeLog and http://www.clamav.net/press/0.94.1-WhatsNew.pdf

The warning is in __strcpy_chk, but I don't want to suppress a useful warnings in recent libcs, and there is no way to specify both a function and object in a suppression, so I suppressed all warnings from libc-2.5 when called from mbox/message.c Mon Oct 27 16:20:02 EET 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------ * unit_tests/duma_tests.sh: fix typo in test script Mon Oct 27 16:15:36 EET 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------ * unit_tests/valgrind.supp: fix valgrind warnings on Fedora Mon Oct 27 14:54:34 CET 2008 (tk) --------------------------------- * freshclam/execute.c: don't execute special events twice in interactive mode (bb#1256) Fri Oct 24 11:45:41 CEST 2008 (tk) ---------------------------------- * libclamav: fix detection of Worm.Mydoom.M.log and control it with CL_SCAN_ALGORITHMIC and dconf (bb#1241) Thu Oct 23 23:01:10 EEST 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------- * clamd/scanner.c: fix leak on rare error path (bb #1254) Wed Oct 22 20:52:37 EEST 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------- * unit_tests/check_clamav.c, unit_tests/check_disasm.c, unit_tests/check_jsnorm.c, unit_tests/check_matchers.c, unit_tests/check_regex.c, unit_tests/check_uniq.c, unit_tests/checks.h: support building with older versions of check Wed Oct 22 17:45:11 EEST 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------- * configure, m4/acinclude.m4: fix typo in previous commit Wed Oct 22 17:43:38 EEST 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------- * configure, m4/acinclude.m4: When user has overriden --libdir, we still need to find out the correct acl_libdirstem Mon Oct 20 17:23:12 EEST 2008 (edwin) ------------------------------------- * aclocal.m4, configure, configure.in, m4/acinclude.m4, m4/lib-prefix.m4: use -print-multi-os-directory to set default libdir (bb #1240) * WARNING: On a 64-bit multiarch OS, this will by default install libclamav into /usr/local/lib64, if your system uses /usr/local/lib for 32bit apps. If the system uses /usr/local/lib for 64-bit apps and lib32 for 32bit apps, there is no change (unless you use -m32).
