6.6.1 New AV Limits Real-Time Scan to Files Smaller than 5MB?

Was checking into something else and stumbled across this small admission in the journalctl output...

 

Jan 20 03:46:47 hostname clamd[11846]: ScanOnAccess: Max file size limited to 5242880 bytes

It's seriously configured not to scan files larger than approx 5MB?

    Hi btaroli,

     

    Let me inquire about that.

      Yep, I see that too.

       

       

      MaxFileSize                50M

       

      Sadly, a check of journalctl suggests my logs only go back to 24-JAN now, so I can't pull that entry out again. I do see a troubling set of messages from 24-JAN about /tmp being out of space.

      So not sure where that reference I saw and captured came from, but I trust it! :) I guess I'll get another chance at seeing it once I can move to 6.7.
