4.2.6. Additional capabilities: using script
files
Kaspersky Anti-Virus offers additional processing of objects during anti-virus
analysis by using standard Unix commands and script files. Using these tools,
experienced administrators can define actions to be performed on objects of
different statuses, and thus expand the functionality of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
4.2.6.1. Disinfection of infected objects in an
archive
Kaspersky Anti-Virus detects, but does not disinfect, suspicious and infected files
packed in archives. However, infected files packed in archives can be disinfected
by using an additional script file. The next example shows how to disinfect tar
and zip archives using the script file vox.sh, which is included in the Kaspersky
Anti-Virus distribution package.
When started, the scripts unpacks the archive being scanned, runs an anti-virus
scan and processes the individual objects, and then repacks the scanned files. It
assumes that the necessary archiving utilities have been installed on the system.
Task: scan all tar and zip archives, using script vox.sh.
