I ran some tests after my last posting to answer just this question, but results were mixed so I was waiting for an authoritative answer. Since we haven’t heard yet, I’ll post my results. First I made my own .dmg with an eicar test file on-board. Running clamscan —debut on the file did not de

Al, Could you please open a ticket at bugzilla.clamav.net and attach your EicarTest.dmg and also the command used to create it? We'll take a look at what's going on. Thanks, Steve On Sat, Mar 28, 2015 at 6:21 PM, Al Varnell wrote: > I sent this out last night, but it must have been rejected fo

Thanks for the responses. I am not a computer expert so I might not fully understand all that has been discussed but it sounds like ClamXav extracts(decompose?) archive files like zip, RAR and then scan. But with .dmg file it is uncertain that it does the same thing. It sounds like ClamXav is

Are the image files scanned as a single binary or are they burst like other archives into discreet files and then scanned? I guess the question really is against what would signatures be written when dealing with disk images. dp On 3/27/15 4:45 AM, Joel Esler (jesler) wrote: Dmg scanning was

Re: [clamav-users] ClamXav and Compressed Files

The dmg files are logical structures. They are comprised of Unix directories and files and clam doesn't need to treat them differently than any other directory tree. if you have support compiled in for zip, RAR, TAR, and several other archiving formats it should decompose them and scan each of t
