Enhancements:
- All scanners now update signatures immediately after installation
- Signature updates are visible with progress messages
- Show relevant output from update commands
- Graceful fallback if update output parsing fails
Updates per scanner:
1. ClamAV:
- freshclam runs immediately post-install
- Shows "updated", "Downloaded", or "up-to-date" messages
- Confirms with green checkmark
2. Maldet:
- maldet -u runs immediately post-install
- Shows "update completed" or signature count
- Confirms with green checkmark
3. ImunifyAV:
- imunify-antivirus update runs immediately post-install
- Shows "updated", "Success", or "completed" messages
- Confirms with green checkmark
User feedback addressed: Signatures should update automatically
right after installation, not silently in background.
Architecture Changes:
- ALL scans now use standalone scanner (/opt deployment)
- Toolkit serves as monitor/manager, not executor
- Removed direct scanning from toolkit entirely
New Features:
- Bulk scanner installation (install all 3 at once)
- Scan status checker with live progress
- Session manager (delete individual or all completed scans)
- Enhanced menu structure with clear separation
Menu Organization:
1. Create New Scan (server/user/domain/custom) → generates standalone
2. Monitor & Manage (status/results/delete)
3. Configuration (install all/settings)
Removed Functions:
- scan_entire_server() - now via standalone
- scan_user_account() - now via standalone
- scan_domain() - now via standalone
- scan_custom_path() - now via standalone
- run_all_scanners() - embedded in standalone
- scan_imunify/clamav/maldet() - embedded in standalone
Benefits:
- Cleaner separation of concerns
- Consistent scan execution (all via standalone)
- Better resource management
- Toolkit can be deleted during scan
- Centralized scan monitoring
Enhancements:
- Auto-install screen when not available (yum/apt-get support)
- Nohup fallback option if user prefers no screen installation
- Enhanced view_scan_results to show standalone scanner sessions
- Display session status (running/completed) for standalone scans
- Show summary, infected files, and logs for each session
- Track PIDs for nohup-launched scans
Screen handling:
- Option 1: Auto-install screen (recommended)
- Option 2: Use nohup fallback (no dependencies)
- Option 3: Cancel operation
Results viewer improvements:
- Separate toolkit and standalone scan results
- List all /opt/malware-* sessions with status
- Show summary, infected files, and recent logs
- Provide commands to monitor ongoing scans
This ensures the standalone scanner works even on minimal
systems without screen pre-installed.
Features:
- Standalone scanner generator that runs independently in /opt
- Launch in screen session for background execution
- Self-contained script with no toolkit dependencies
- Self-cleanup with user confirmation after completion
- Scanner installation guide for ImunifyAV, ClamAV, and Maldet
- Menu option 5: Launch standalone scanner
- Complete scan scope selection (server/user/domain/custom path)
Implementation:
- Added show_scanner_installation_guide() function
- Added launch_standalone_scanner_menu() function
- Enhanced generate_standalone_scanner() with screen integration
- Integrated with main malware scanner menu
Use case: Long-running scans can be launched independently,
allowing toolkit deletion while scans continue in background.
New Features:
- 'All Available Scanners' option in all scan modes (server/user/domain/custom)
- Runs ImunifyAV, ClamAV, and Maldet sequentially with progress tracking
- Creates consolidated multi-scanner session reports
- Shows [1/3], [2/3], [3/3] progress indicators
- 3-second wait between scanners to prevent system overload
- Session reports saved to logs/malware-scans/multiscan_*.txt
- Stores session IDs in reference database for cross-module access
- New 'Compare scanner results' option (menu option 6)
- View consolidated reports from multiple scanners
Workflow:
1. Select any scan scope (server/user/domain/path)
2. Choose 'All Available Scanners' option
3. All installed scanners run automatically one after another
4. Single consolidated report with all results
5. Use option 6 to compare/view latest multi-scanner session
Much more automated - no need to run each scanner separately!
