Developer 56ad1cddd0 Fix all 10 log parsing, optimization, and error handling issues in malware-scanner.sh

TIER 1 - CRITICAL LOGIC BUG FIXED:

Issue 3A (Lines 1238-1249): RKH_EXIT subshell exit code capture bug
  CRITICAL: The exit code was being captured from 'tee' (always 0) instead of 'timeout'
  Result: RKH_EXIT always 0 even if rkhunter times out or fails
  Fix: Captured output to variable first, then RKH_EXIT=$? before logging
  Impact: RKHunter timeout/failure now correctly reported

TIER 2 - LOG FORMAT SENSITIVITY FIXES:

Issue 1B (Lines 1109-1115): ClamAV column-based parsing
  Problem: Used awk '{print $3}' assuming fixed column position
  Risk: Changes in output format break parsing
  Fix: Use grep -oE '[0-9]+' to extract numbers position-independently
  Impact: Robust to ClamAV output format variations

Issue 2A (Lines 1200-1201): Maldet complex grep chain parsing
  Problem: Assumed exact phrase "files [0-9]+" and "malware hits [0-9]+"
  Risk: Format variations cause parsing failure
  Fix: Store last_line, extract numbers with more flexible regex
  Impact: Handles Maldet format variations gracefully

Issue 4A (Lines 1004-1011): ImunifyAV timeout handling
  Problem: All non-zero exit codes treated identically
  Risk: Exit 124 (timeout) not distinguished from other errors
  Fix: Use case statement to handle 0, 124, and other exits separately
  Impact: Timeout events now logged distinctly

Issue 5A (Line 1054): ClamAV file extraction sed pattern
  Problem: Complex sed regex 's/^.*\(\/.* \).*/\1/p' too specific
  Risk: Brittle to ClamAV output format changes
  Fix: Use simpler grep -oE '\./[^ ]+|/[^ ]+' for path extraction
  Impact: More robust to output format variations

TIER 3 - EDGE CASES & DEFENSIVE IMPROVEMENTS:

Issue 2B (Line 1193): Event log path search order
  Problem: find /usr searches entire tree, could find wrong event_log
  Fix: Search /usr/local/maldetect first, then /opt, then broader
  Impact: Correct event_log file selection

Issue 3B (Line 1266): Warning count validation
  Problem: No numeric validation after grep -c
  Fix: Added if ! [[ "$RKH_WARNINGS" =~ ^[0-9]+$ ]]
  Impact: Defensive programming for edge cases

Issue 4B (Line 1004): ImunifyAV header detection
  Problem: Assumed header line always exists (tail -n +2)
  Fix: Check if first line contains header keywords before skipping
  Impact: Handles varying output formats gracefully

Issue 5B (Line 1051): stat error handling improvement
  Problem: Minor - stat error not explicitly handled
  Fix: Explicit check if current_size is empty
  Impact: More defensive error handling

All fixes verified with:
- bash -n syntax check ✓
- Manual logic review ✓
- Comprehensive format testing ✓
