* Wed Apr 14 2010 max@suse.de
- Extended the libmilter compatibility patch for SLES9.
- Explicitly disabling LLVM for versions older than SLES10 and
archs other than i586 and x86_64.
* Mon Apr 12 2010 max@suse.de
- Leave it up to configure to decide whether the arch supports JIT
compiling through LLVM (currntly only x86 and x86_64).
* Wed Apr 07 2010 max@suse.de
- ClamAV 0.96 introduces new malware detection mechanisms and
other significant improvements to the scan engine.
The key features are:
* The Bytecode Interpreter: the interpreter built into LibClamAV
allows the signature writers to create and distribute very
complex detection routines and remotely enhance the scanner’s
functionality.
* Heuristic improvements: improve the PE heuristics detection
engine by adding support of bogus icons and fake PE header
information. In a nutshell, ClamAV can now detect malware that
tries to disguise itself as a harmless application by using
the most common Windows program icons.
* Signature Improvements: logical signature improvements to
allow more detailed matching and referencing groups of
signatures. Additionally, improvements to wildcard matching on
word boundaries and newlines.
* Support for new archives: 7zip, InstallShield and CPIO.
LibClamAV can now transparently unpack and inspect their
contents.
* Support for new executable file formats: 64-bit ELF files and
OS X Universal Binaries with Mach-O files. Additionally, the
PE module can now decompress and inspect executables packed
with UPX 3.0.
* Support for DazukoFS in clamd
* Performance improvements: overall performance improvements and
memory optimizations for a better overall resource utilization
experience.
