I was saying that, for the use that GeoNode does of the files, there's no
need to check. Those files cannot be executed on the server.
Different is if someone uploads a zip or rar with malicious files in it and
then some user downloads and executes it. In this case usually Windows
systems have anti viruses, but you can see if Ubuntu has something
suitable, see this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Antivirus
