DocBleach is an advanced Content Disarm and Reconstruction software. Its objective is to remove misbehaving dynamic content from your Office files, or everything that could be a threat to the safety of your computer.
Let's assume your job involves working with files from external sources, for instance reading resumes from unknown applicants. You receive for example a .doc file, your anti-virus doesn't detect it as harmful, and you decide to open it anyway. You get infected. You can use DocBleach to sanitize this document: chances are you don't get infected, because the dynamic content isn't run.
Howto's
To build DocBleach, use Maven:
$ mvn clean package

To use DocBleach, you may either use the Web Interface or run it in CLI:
java -jar docbleach.jar -in unsafe_document.doc -out safe_doc.docThe input file may be a relative/absolute path, an URI (think: http:// link),
or a dash (-).
The output file may be a relative/absolute path, or a dash (-).
If a dash is given, the input will be taken from stdin, and the output will be sent to stdout.
DocBleach's information (removed threats, errors, ...) are sent to stderr.

Run the tests
The tests run with JUnit 5, which is perfectly integrated in Maven.
To run tests, just run mvn test. You should get something similar to this:

Project Status
Don't expect the code base to change everyday, but feel free to contribute: new ideas are more than welcome, and threats evolve - so should we.
Some things would be awesome, though:
- Adding a way to configure bleaches
- Write tests!
- Writing more content to show and explain how the sanitation process works, why it works.
- Adding more stats!
