[clamav-users] ClamAV Queries on Maximum file size

[Deenadhayalan Natarajan via clamav-users]

I would like to get some details about the maximum file size clamAV can
support. As we got to know from the documentation that it supports upto 4GB
of maximum file size but would like any possibilities of extending the file
size and also let us know if there is any enterprise version of ClamAV
available.

Regards,
Deena

Can you tell us more about your requirements?

You should consider 2GBytes (not 4GBytes) to be the maximum file size:

https://docs.clamav.net/manual/Development/tips-and-tricks.html?highlight=limits#general-debugging

To allow ClamAV to scan huge files is to risk crashing the scanner,
and there are other issues which may crop up too.


... any enterprise version of ClamAV available.


I don't know of anything which meets your description precisely.  The
ClamAV maintainers are the folks at Cisco-Talos:

[Disclaimer: Other than my chats with people on (and occasionally off)
this list, I have no relationship with Cisco nor any Cisco company.]

Cisco offers a range of product for protecting computer systems:

There are also numerous third-party tools etc. based on ClamAV:

[clamav-users] rust on IBM i PASE environment - a must ?

[Zvi Kave via clamav-users]

  
  
Hi ,


We have ClamAV 0.104.1 compiled from sources and working  fine
in IBM i PASE environment - which is quite same architecture like
  IBM AIX binaries.
We have a problem to compile ClamAV 0.105.0 because at present 

we have not rust on IBM i PASE  - nor on AIX.
Is there a way to compile ClamAV 0.105.0 without rust ?



Regards,


Zvi

The following is taken from the announcement on 14th March 2022 of the
fist release candidate of ClamAV 0.105.0:

| We are excited to announce the ClamAV 0.105.0 release
| candidate.
| 
| Please help us validate this release. We need your feedback, so let us

| know what you find and join us on the ClamAV mailing
| list, or on our
| Discord.
| ...
| ...
| ClamAV 0.105.0 includes the following improvements and changes.
| 
| New Requirements
| 
|   *   Starting with ClamAV v0.105, the Rust toolchain is required to compile ClamAV.

|
| You can install the Rust toolchain for your development environment by
| following the instructions on the rustup
| website. Some binary package distributions do provide relatively
| up-to-date packages of the Rust toolchain, but many do not. Using
| rustup ensures that you have the most up-to-date Rust compiler at the
| time of installation. Keep your toolchain updated for new features and
| bug/security fixes by periodically executing:
| 
| rustup update
| 
| Building ClamAV requires, at a minimum, Rust compiler version 1.56,

| as it relies on features introduced in the Rust 2021 Edition.
| 
| ClamAV's third-party Rust library dependencies are vendored into the

| release tarball (clamav-.tar.gz) file that we publish on
| clamav.net/downloads. But, if you build
| from a Git clone or from an unofficial tarball taken from
| GitHub.com, you will need the internet to download the Rust
| libraries during the build.
| ...

As you can see, the requirement is not just for Rust, but for at least
a minimum version of Rust.
