Hi Mark, I wanted to report that I believe we've properly fixed this issue last week. It looked to be the same issue as https://bugzilla.clamav.net/show_bug.cgi?id=12217 where I've linked to the commits where we did the work.
Sorry it's taken so long, but glad we'll finally have FP signatures working properly in 0.103 😃 -Micah -----Original Message----- From: clamav-devel <clamav-devel-boun...@lists.clamav.net> On Behalf Of Mark Allan Sent: Friday, July 12, 2019 3:08 PM To: ClamAV Development <clamav-devel@lists.clamav.net> Subject: [Clamav-devel] Bug with .fp file being ignored Hi, I think there's a bug with ClamAV not honouring the contents of a .fp file within the database directory. I've tested 0.101.2 as well as previous versions of ClamAV going back to 0.99.4 and the issue seems to have appeared as of 0.100.0 onwards. To re-create the issue: Find a zip file which you know reports an infection when scanned. Use sigtool --md5 to generate an FP sig of the zip file and save it in a <filename>.fp file in the databse directory. Use clamscan to scan the file and see that it still reports the file as being infected. The output from clamscan --debug shows the .fp file is being loaded, but it just doesn't seem to be being honoured for some reason. I see the same thing when I build ClamAV on macOS as well as when using the apt-get distribution on Ubuntu 18.04 Lastly, it only appears to be an issue with archive filetypes eg .zip, .dmg etc. Simple files are excluded as expected - similarly, if you generate an FP sig of a simple file and put that file within an archive, it correctly gets excluded. I'll clone the source from Git on Monday and have a dig through it myself to see if I can fix the bug, but thought I'd mention it here in case someone's already on it, or at least knows where I can start looking!
