The source code shows that ScanPDF is not limited by CL_EXPERIMENTAL: if(cfgopt(copt, "ScanPDF")->enabled) { logg("PDF support enabled.\n"); options |= CL_SCAN_PDF; } else { logg("PDF support disabled.\n"); } if(cfgopt(copt, "ScanHTML")->enabled) { logg("HTML support enabled.\n"); options |= CL_SCAN_HTML; } else { logg("HTML support disabled.\n"); } #ifdef CL_EXPERIMENTAL if(cfgopt(copt,"PhishingScanURLs")->enabled) { ... #endif /* CL_EXPERIMENTAL */ Nor is it for clamscan: #ifdef CL_EXPERIMENTAL mprintf(" --no-phishing-scan-urls Disable url-based phishing detection\n"); mprintf(" --no-phishing-restrictedscan Enable phishing detection for all domains (might lead to false positives!)\n"); mprintf(" --phishing-ssl Always block SSL mismatches in URLs (phishing module)\n"); mprintf(" --phishing-cloak Always block cloaked URLs (phishing module)\n"); #endif mprintf(" --no-algorithmic Disable algorithmic detection\n"); mprintf(" --no-pe Disable PE analysis\n"); mprintf(" --no-elf Disable ELF support\n"); mprintf(" --no-ole2 Disable OLE2 support\n"); mprintf(" --no-pdf Disable PDF support\n"); MrC > > I also use the MSRBL sigs and Sane-Security phishing and spam sigs.
