You can run your scanners softlimited to prevent such activity i.e. I always manually edit QS.pl: my $unzip_binary='/usr/local/bin/softlimit -t 120 -f 100000000 /usr/local/bin/unzip'; However, it still seems that QS ignores the return code of a process that has hit a softlimit. I brought this up last year: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=7917252 Your patch gives much finer control over all this though.
