Wieczo's Virus Scanner

설명

Wieczo’s Virus Scanner is a WordPress plugin that allows users to upload files from the WordPress admin area and scan them for viruses and malware by sending them to a ClamAV service.

Additionally, the plugin sends every upload to ClamAV first. If a virus is found, the upload is aborted.

The plugin also supports scanning your whole WordPress installation for malware and viruses.

The plugin connects to a ClamAV service using the Host and Port variables configured in the plugin settings.

Features

• File Upload: Allows file uploads through a user-friendly admin page.
• Upload Scan: Scans all uploaded files for viruses and malware.
• Full Scan: Separate page to scan the whole WordPress installation for malware and viruses.
• ClamAV Integration: Sends files via a socket connection to a ClamAV service for virus scanning.
• Easy Configuration: Configure the host and port of the ClamAV service in the plugin settings.

• Simon Neutert – Always an inspiration and contributes with his thoughts
  and well-spoken arguments.

Manual Installation:

1. Upload the wieczos-virus-scanner directory to your WordPress installation’s /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
2. Activate the plugin in the WordPress Admin area under “Plugins.”
3. Configure the ClamAV service under Settings -> ClamAV Settings (enter the host and port of the ClamAV service).

Configuration

After activating the plugin, you can configure the connection information for your ClamAV service as follows:

1. Go to Settings -> ClamAV Scanner.

2. Enter the Host and Port of your ClamAV service, for example:

   • Host: 127.0.0.1 (if the service is running locally, default: clamav)
   • Port: 3310 (default port for ClamAV)

3. Optionally, you can set a Timeout to define the maximum wait time for the connection to the ClamAV service.

Usage

1. Upload Scan

Once the plugin is activated, it automatically scans all uploads for viruses.

2. Manually Upload and Scan Files

1. Navigate to ClamAV Scanner -> File Scanner in the WordPress admin menu.
2. Select a file you want to scan for viruses and click “Scan File.”
3. The plugin sends the file via a socket to the ClamAV service, and you will receive the scan result directly in the admin dashboard.

How It Works

• The plugin uses the PHP socket functionality to establish a connection with a ClamAV service.
• Files uploaded through the WordPress admin interface are temporarily stored on the server.
• The plugin then opens a socket connection to the configured ClamAV host and port and sends the uploaded file for analysis.
• After the scan, the plugin displays the scan results on the admin page.

Requirements

• WordPress 6.7 or higher
• A running ClamAV service that is accessible via a network socket (default port: 3310).
• PHP sockets must be enabled on the server.
