Heuristic signatures exist for a variety of file types. They are hardcoded into the clamav application. A grep of the source code reveales the following:
~/workspace/clamav-devel • grep -r "Heuristics\." ./libclamav ./libclamav/pe.c: ret = cli_append_virus(ctx, "Heuristics.Broken.Executable"); ./libclamav/pe.c: ret = cli_append_virus(ctx, "Heuristics.W32.Parite.B"); ./libclamav/pe.c: ret = cli_append_virus(ctx, "Heuristics.W32.Kriz"); ./libclamav/pe.c: ret = cli_append_virus(ctx, dam ?

From what I understood, the .ldb are not the rules for heuristics right? 2. Is the heuristic scan only working for email protection? Is it running when I do a normal clamscan? 3. If heuristic rules are not the ones in .ldb files where are they? Can we see them like with the signature db's? With sigtool as well? Thank you in advance for your help 🙂
