NAME

clamd.conf - Configuration file for Clam AntiVirus Daemon

DESCRIPTION

clamd.conf configures the Clam AntiVirus daemon, clamd(8).

FILE FORMAT
The file consists of comments and options with arguments. Each line which starts with a hash (#) symbol is ignored by the parser. Options and arguments are case sensitive and of the form Option Argument. The arguments are of the following types:

BOOL
    Boolean value (yes/no or true/false or 1/0).

STRING
    String without blank characters.

SIZE
    Size in bytes. You can use 'M' or 'm' modifiers for megabytes and 'K' or 'k' for kilobytes. To specify the size in bytes just don't use modifiers.

NUMBER
    Unsigned integer.

DIRECTIVES

When some option is not used (commented out or not included in the configuration file at all) clamd takes a default action.

Example
    If this option is set clamd will not run.

LogFile STRING
    Save all reports to a log file.
    Default: disabled

LogFileUnlock BOOL
    By default the log file is locked for writing and only a single daemon process can write to it. This option disables the lock.

    Default: 120

CommandReadTimeout NUMBER
    This option specifies the time (in seconds) after which clamd should timeout if a client doesn't provide any initial command after connecting. The default is set to 30 to avoid timeouts with TCP sockets when processing large messages. If using a Unix socket, the value can be changed to 5. Note: the timeout for subsequents commands, and/or data chunks is specified by ReadTimeout.
    Default: 30

SendBufTimeout NUMBER
    This option specifies how long to wait (in milliseconds) if the send buffer is full. Keep this value low to prevent clamd hanging.
    Default: 500

MaxQueue NUMBER
    Maximum number of queued items (including those being processed by MaxThreads threads). It is recommended to have this value at least twice MaxThreads if possible.
    WARNING: you shouldn't increase this too much to avoid running out of file descriptors, the following condition should hold: MaxThreads*MaxRecursion + MaxQueue - MaxThreads + 6 < RLIMIT_NOFILE. RLIMIT_NOFILE is the maximum number of open file descriptors (usually 1024), set by ulimit -n.
    Default: 100

IdleTimeout NUMBER
    This option specifies how long (in seconds) the process should wait for a new job.

    This option specifies the time intervals (in seconds) in which clamd should perform a database check.
    Default: 600

ConcurrentDatabaseReload BOOL
    Enable non-blocking (multi-threaded/concurrent) database reloads. This feature will temporarily load a second scanning engine while scanning continues using the first engine. Once loaded, the new engine takes over. The old engine is removed as soon as all scans using the old engine have completed. This feature requires more RAM, so this option is provided in case users are willing to block scans during reload in exchange for lower RAM requirements.
    Default: yes

VirusEvent COMMAND
    Execute a command when virus is found. Use the following environment variables to identify the file and virus names: - $CLAM_VIRUSEVENT_FILENAME - $CLAM_VIRUSEVENT_VIRUSNAME In the command string, '%v' will also be replaced with the virus name. Note: The '%f' filename format character has been disabled and will no longer be replaced with the file name, due to command injection security concerns. Use the 'CLAM_VIRUSEVENT_FILENAME' environment variable instead. For the same reason, you should NOT use the environment variables in the command directly, but should use it carefully from your executed script.
    Default: disabled

ExitOnOOM BOOL
    Stop daemon when libclamav reports out of memory condition.
    Default: no

    Default: no

LeaveTemporaryFiles BOOL
    Do not remove temporary files (for debugging purpose).
    Default: no

GenerateMetadataJson BOOL
    Record metadata about the file being scanned. Scan metadata is useful for file analysis purposes and for debugging scan behavior. The JSON metadata will be printed after the scan is complete if Debug is enabled. A metadata.json file will be written to the scan temp directory if LeaveTemporaryFiles is enabled.
    Default: no

JsonStoreHTMLURIs BOOL
    Store URIs found in html files to the json metadata. URIs will be stored in an array with the tag 'URIs'. GenerateMetadataJson is required for this feature.
    Default: yes (if GenerateMetadataJson is used)

JsonStorePDFURIs BOOL
    Store URIs found in pdf files to the json metadata. URIs will be stored in an array with the tag 'URIs'. GenerateMetadataJson is required for this feature.
    Default: yes (if GenerateMetadataJson is used)

JsonStoreExtraHashes BOOL
    Calculate MD5 and SHA1 hashes (in addition to SHA2-256) and store to the json metadata. GenerateMetadataJson is required for this feature.
    Default: no

BytecodeTimeout NUMBER
    Set bytecode timeout in milliseconds.
    Default: 10000

BytecodeUnsigned BOOL
    Allow loading bytecode from outside digitally signed .c[lv]d files. **Caution**: You should NEVER run bytecode signatures from untrusted sources. Doing so may result in arbitrary code execution.
    Default: no

BytecodeMode STRING
    Set bytecode execution mode.
    Possible values:
    Auto - automatically choose JIT if possible, fallback to interpreter
    ForceJIT - always choose JIT, fail if not possible

    Default: yes

HeuristicScanPrecedence BOOL
    Allow heuristic match to take precedence. When enabled, if a heuristic scan (such as phishingScan) detects a possible virus/phishing it will stop scanning immediately. Recommended, saves CPU scan-time. When disabled, virus/phishing detected by heuristic scans will be reported only at the end of a scan. If an archive contains both a heuristically detected virus/phishing, and a real malware, the real malware will be reported. Keep this disabled if you intend to handle "*.Heuristics.*" viruses differently from "real" malware. If a non-heuristically-detected virus (signature-based) is found first, the scan is interrupted immediately, regardless of this config option.
    Default: no

ScanPE BOOL
    PE stands for Portable Executable - it's an executable file format used in all 32 and 64-bit versions of Windows operating systems. This option allows ClamAV to perform a deeper analysis of executable files and it's also required for decompression of popular executable packers such as UPX.

    Default: no

MaxScanTime SIZE
    This option sets the maximum amount of time a scan may take to complete. The value is in milliseconds. The value of 0 disables the limit. WARNING: disabling this limit or setting it too high may result allow scanning of certain files to lock up the scanning process/threads resulting in a Denial of Service.
    Default: 120000

MaxScanSize SIZE
    Sets the maximum amount of data to be scanned for each input file. Archives and other containers are recursively extracted and scanned up to this value. The size of an archive plus the sum of the sizes of all files within archive count toward the scan size. For example, a 1M uncompressed archive containing a single 1M inner file counts as 2M toward the max scan size. Warning: disabling this limit or setting it too high may result in severe damage to the system.
    Default: 400M

MaxFileSize SIZE
    Files larger than this limit won't be scanned. Affects the input file itself as well as files contained inside it (when the input file is an archive, a document or some other kind of container). Warning: disabling this limit or setting it too high may result in severe damage to the system. Technical design limitations prevent ClamAV from scanning files greater than 2 GB at this time.
    Default: 100M

MaxRecursion NUMBER
    Nested archives are scanned recursively, e.g. if a Zip archive contains a RAR file, all files within it will also be scanned. This options specifies how deeply the process should be continued. Warning: setting this limit too high may result in severe damage to the system.

    Negative values are not allowed.
    WARNING: setting this limit too high may result in severe damage or impact performance.
    Default: 100

MaxRecHWP3 NUMBER
    This option sets the maximum recursive calls to HWP3 parsing function.
    HWP3 files using more than this limit will be terminated and alert the user.
    Scans will be unable to scan any HWP3 attachments if the recursive limit is reached.
    Negative values are not allowed.
    WARNING: setting this limit too high may result in severe damage or impact performance.
    Default: 16

PCREMatchLimit NUMBER

    For more information on match_limit, see the PCRE documentation.
    Negative values are not allowed.
    WARNING: setting this limit too high may severely impact performance.
    Default: 10000

PCRERecMatchLimit NUMBER
    This option sets the maximum recursive calls to the PCRE match function during an instance of regex matching.
    Instances using more than this limit will be terminated and alert the user but the scan will continue.

    Negative values are not allowed and values > PCREMatchLimit are superfluous.
    WARNING: setting this limit too high may severely impact performance.
    Default: 2000

PCREMaxFileSize SIZE
    This option sets the maximum filesize for which PCRE subsigs will be executed.
    Files exceeding this limit will not have PCRE subsigs executed unless a subsig is encompassed to a smaller buffer.

OnAccessIncludePath STRING
    This option specifies a directory (including all files and directories inside it), which should be scanned on access. This option can be used multiple times.
    Default: disabled

OnAccessExcludePath STRING
    This option allows excluding directories from on-access scanning. It can be used multiple times.
    Default: disabled

OnAccessExcludeRootUID BOOL
    With this option you can exclude the root UID (0). Processes run under root will be able to access all files without triggering scans or permission denied events.
    Note that if clamd cannot check the uid of the process that generated an on-access scan event (e.g., because OnAccessPrevention was not enabled, and the process already exited), clamd will perform a scan. Thus, setting OnAccessExcludeRootUID is not guaranteed to prevent every access by the root user from triggering a scan (unless OnAccessPrevention is enabled).
    Default: no

OnAccessExcludeUID NUMBER
    With this option you can exclude specific UIDs. Processes with these UIDs will be able to access all files without triggering scans or permission denied events.
    This option can be used multiple times (one per line).
    Note: using a value of 0 on any line will disable this option entirely. To exclude the root UID (0) please enable the OnAccessExcludeRootUID option.
    Also note that if clamd cannot check the uid of the process that generated an on-access scan event (e.g., because OnAccessPrevention was not enabled, and the process already exited), clamd will perform a scan. Thus, setting OnAccessExcludeUID is not guaranteed to prevent every access by the specified uid from triggering a scan (unless OnAccessPrevention is enabled).
    Default: disabled

OnAccessExcludeUname STRING
    This option allows exclusions via user names when using the on-access scanning client. It can be used multiple times, and has the same potential race condition limitations of the OnAccessExcludeUID option.
    Default: disabled

OnAccessMaxFileSize SIZE
    Files larger than this value will not be scanned in on access.
    Default: 5M

OnAccessMaxThreads NUMBER
    Max number of scanning threads to allocate to the OnAccess thread pool at startup. These threads are the ones responsible for creating a connection with the daemon and kicking off scanning after an event has been processed. To prevent clamonacc from consuming all clamd's resources keep this lower than clamd's max threads.
    Default: 5

OnAccessCurlTimeout NUMBER
    Max amount of time (in milliseconds) that the OnAccess client should spend for every connect, send, and receive attempt when communicating with clamd via curl.
    Default: 5000 (5 seconds)

OnAccessMountPath STRING
    Specifies a mount point (including all files and directories under it), which should be scanned on access. This option can be used multiple times.
    Default: disabled

OnAccessDisableDDD BOOL
    Disables the dynamic directory determination system which allows for recursively watching include paths.
    Default: no

OnAccessPrevention BOOL
    Enables fanotify blocking when malicious files are found.
    Default: disabled

OnAccessRetryAttempts NUMBER
    Number of times the OnAccess client will retry a failed scan due to connection problems (or other issues).
    Default: 0

OnAccessDenyOnError BOOL
    When using prevention, if this option is turned on, any errors that occur during scanning will result in the event attempt being denied. This could potentially lead to unwanted system behaviour with certain configurations, so the client defaults this to off and prefers allowing access events in case of scan or connection error.
    Default: no

OnAccessExtraScanning BOOL
    Toggles extra scanning and notifications when a file or directory is created or moved.
    Requires the DDD system to kick-off extra scans.
    Default: no

DisableCertCheck BOOL
    Disable authenticode certificate chain verification in PE files.
    Default: no

NOTES

All options expressing a size are limited to max 4GB. Values in excess will be reset to the maximum.
