ClamAV Unofficial Signatures v8.0.0 Drops After Five Years with Official Docker and ClamAV 1.x Support
After a five-year hiatus, Adrian Kriel, better known as eXtremeSHOK, has released v8.0.0 of the ClamAV Unofficial Signatures Updater, its first major update since March 2021. The new version adds full ClamAV 1.x compatibility, official multi-arch Docker support, and two new optional signature sources for ditekshen/detection and twinclams, while finally patching a silent URLhaus bug that was corrupting previous installs. Internal refactoring stripped 380 lines of duplicated code and migrated the continuous integration pipeline to GitHub Actions for real ClamAV smoke testing and weekly source-liveness probes. Users upgrading from v7.x can run the --upgrade flag safely, though those with aggressive cleanup settings should check the changelog before their next run since yararulesproject signatures are now disabled by default.
