clamdscan

A command-line virus scanner using the ClamAV Daemon. More information: https://www.clamav.net.

• Scan a file or directory for vulnerabilities:

clamdscan {{path/to/file_or_directory}}

• Scan data from stdin:

{{command}} | clamdscan -

• Scan the current directory and output only infected files:

clamdscan --infected

• Output the scan report to a log file:

clamdscan --log {{path/to/log_file}}

• Move infected files to a specific directory:

clamdscan --move {{path/to/quarantine_directory}}

• Remove infected files:

clamdscan --remove

• Use multiple threads to scan a directory:

clamdscan --multiscan

• Pass the file descriptor instead of streaming the file to the daemon:

clamdscan --fdpass
