Sourcefire and the ClamAV team are pleased to announce the release of
5
ClamAV 0.94. The following are the key features and improvements of this
8
- Logical Signatures: The logical signature technology uses operators
9
such as AND, OR and NOT to allow the combination of more than one
10
signature into one entry in the signature database resulting in
11
more detailed and flexible pattern matching.
13
- Anti-phishing Technology: Users can now change the priority and reporting
14
of ClamAV's heuristic anti-phishing scanner within the detection engine
15
process. They can choose whether, when scanning a supicious file, ClamAV
16
should stop scanning and report the phish, or continue to scan in case the
17
file contains other malware (clamd: HeuristicScanPrecedence,
18
clamscan: --heuristic-scan-precedence)
20
- Disassembly Engine: The initial version of the disassembly engine improves
21
ClamAV's detection abilities.
23
- PUA Detection: Users can now decide which PUA signatures should be loaded
24
(clamd: ExcludePUA, IncludePUA; clamscan: --exclude-pua, --include-pua)
26
- Data Loss Prevention (DLP): This version includes a new module that, when
27
enabled, scans data for the inclusion of US formated Social Security
28
Numbers and credit card numbers (clamd: StructuredDataDetection,
29
clamscan: --detect-structured; additional fine-tuning options are available)

- IPv6 Support: Freshclam now supports IPv6
33
- Improved Scanning of Scripts: The normalization of scripts now covers
