NAME

       clamav-unofficial-sigs - Download, test, and install third-party ClamAV signature databases.

SYNOPSIS

       clamav-unofficial-sigs [options]

DESCRIPTION

       clamav-unofficial-sigs   is   a  shell  script  that  downloads,  updates  and  tests  the  Sanesecurity,
       SecuriteInfo, MalwarePatrol, OITC, etc. third-party signature databases for ClamAV.

OPTIONS

       This script follows the standard GNU command line syntax.  A summary of the options is shown below.

       -b     DEPRECATED - Consider  using  -w  instead,  it  supports  the  newer  ClamAV  signature  whitelist
              functionality.
              Add  a  bypass signature entry to local.ign in order to temporarily resolve a false-positive issue
              with a third-party signature.  The script will monitor any entries it makes to local.ign and  will
              automatically  remove bypass entries if either the original signature has been modified or removed
              from the database.

       -c FILE-NAME
              Source configuration information from a different file.

       -d     Decode a hexadecimal encoded string or an individual ClamAV 3rd-party signature for viewing.  This
              will not decode image signatures nor the official signatures.

       -e     Encode a entire input string in hexadecimal for signature usage in any *.ndb database.

       -f     Encode a formated input string in hexadecimal that contains spacing field  '{},  (),  *',  without
              encoding the spacing fields, for signature usage in any '*.ndb' database.

       -g FILE-NAME
              Verify  the GPG signature for a specific SaneSecurity database file.  Only specify the filename as
              listed in the configuration file and the script will search for it in the work directory.

       -h     Print the script help and usage information.

       -i     Print system and script configuration information.

       -m     Make a hexadecimal signature database file (*.ndb) from a clear text ascii file.  Provides support
              for both full and formatted signatures.  Additional information is provided when using the flag.

       -r     Remove the clamav-unofficial-sigs script and all of  its  associated  files,  databases  and  work
              directories from the system.

       -s FILE-NAME
              Test  the  integrity of a third-party signature database with clamscan.  Only specify the filename
              as listed in the configuration file and the script will search for it in the work directory.

       -t     If HAM directory scanning is enabled in the script's configuration file, then output the names  of
              any third-party signatures that triggered during the HAM directory scan.

       -v     Print the script version and date information.

       -w     Adds  a  signature whitelist entry in the newer ClamAV IGN2 format to 'my-whitelist.ign2' in order
              to temporarily resolve a false-positive issue with a specific third-party signature.  Script added
              whitelist entries will automatically be removed if the original signature is  either  modified  or
              removed from the third-party signature database.
