Yep, thanks Dennis, I see now that it is in fact /tmp, at least on my system. This was also confirmed via strace, and quite simply from the output of clamscan itself when using the verbose flag (-v): clamscan -v -d /var/tmp/rsync/MSRBL-Images.hdb - < /dev/null Checking /tmp/clamav-5cb3da41e7cedff0c4dec1ce07a87beb stdin: OK which I had somehow managed to completely overlook.
