[Clamav-users] Some questions

2004-03-11 Thread Peter van der Does
Hi,

We're evaluating clamav to use with our mail server. So far I'm very
enthousiastic, espec cause clamav detects the encrypted zip files and
the speed new signatures come available but unfortunately I'm not the
only one who decides if we're going to use it anyway we're running:
clamd / ClamAV version 0.67
freshclam / ClamAV version 0.67

We only got a two small problems, we let freshclam check every hour for
updates and it gets them, the problems with it:

Q1.
We have had problems with the databasemirror set as
database.clamav.net. we got the errors:

>From the log:
ERROR: Malformed CVD header detected.
ERROR: Can't read main.cvd header from database.clamav.net (ourproxy)
Trying again...

After setting it to a real mirror everything went fine. But we prefer
to use the database.clamav.net.


Q2.
I just read the UpdateDB mail:
Submission: 1890
Sender: Dirk Mueller
Submitted virus name: WM97/Outblack-A
Virus name: WM97.Outblack.A
Virus name alias: IRC-Worm.Blackput (kaspersky)
Note: Latest CVS version of ClamAV is required to detect 
Note: the macro viruses.
Added: Yes

Does this mean our version of clamav doesn't detect macro viruses at
all? If so what other forms of virusses doesn't it detect?

Thanx for making a awesome program and hopefully one day I can inform
you we're going to use it for real.

Re: [Clamav-users] Virus scanned by clamav.net but updated db missed it

Fajar:

>PS : Has your problem solved yet?

Unfortunately nope. The problem might be relevant to amavisd-new where it incorrectly 
passes the mail attachment to clamd.
Is there any way to view the content of the vcd file to see if the virus is within the 
definition.

I posted another thread in regards to amavis patch misses the bagle-F-zippwd. Although 
the patch is done, still I can't detect the zip protected virus.

Needs further investigation. Thanks for all your help.

I support the original poster. It would be a nice feature if it were
done inside clamav itself, as he argued.

Thanks for the clarification. I will be more careful to spare time to
also read the Changelog, besides what I see being discussed ;(.
All along I had thought that it was an option to ./configure.

Yes, mine was and still is detecting the password-protected versions.

You have too many viruses detected, should be something like:
Known viruses: 20447
I would suspect you have old viruses.db and viruses.db2 files lying
around, they should be removed.  But that probably won't solve your
reported problem.  

Recheck you patch or upgrade to the -p8 version announced yesterday.

The "signature" is the signature of the virus, or the virus definition. I 
guess we call it a signature because it can be used to identify the virus. 
Anyway that's what freshclam is doing, updating the definition database

When you say clamAV works with logrotate, what command are you issuing to 
get clamav to start using the new file? What I'm seeing is that it doesn't 
respond to SIGHUP but has to be killed and restarted to get it to let go of 
the old filehandle

Karis Matik wrote:

What are the *.db* files? What are the *.cvd files? Is the *.db* file just a list which will be compiled into binary file (namely the .cvd files)?

 

Simply put, the *.cvd is the new format vor viruses.db and viruses.db2. 
As the name implied, main.cvd is the main virus signature database 
(rarely updated) and daily.cvd is the database which contains most 
recent virus signatures (frequently updated). *.cvd does not require 
*.md5 files to verify database integrity anymore. It is also smaller 
(less than half in size) compared to *.db. You can test database 
integrity with `sigtool -i daily.cvd` or `sigtool -i main.cvd`.

If you want to add your own virus definition, you can still do it using 
the old *.db format, name it anything-you-want.db, and put it in 
signatures directory. ClamAV will pick it up automatically.

Fajar

Hi Noel,
Yes, I've put the MAIL$ line in the amavisd.conf. Still, it missed the Info.zip 
attachment.
Have you tested with a zipped password protected?
My initial thinking is (probably) the database isn't read properly. But again, during 
restart of clamd service, I got good indication that 40,000 something kind of viruses 
listed in the database from clamd.log.


Thank you.

Did you remember to edit amavisd.conf and add MAIL to the

this feature.

Re: [Clamav-users] Virus scanned by clamav.net but updated db missed it

2004-03-11 Thread Karis Matik
Thanks to Fajar and Antoni.
One thing I still don't understand is about the viruses.db or viruses.db2.

What are the *.db* files? What are the *.cvd files? Is the *.db* file just a list 
which will be compiled into binary file (namely the .cvd files)?

Fajar mentioned the virus database used is the .cvd. But the name viruses.db implies 
its meaning by itself. Confused.

The reason I ask this question because when I checked the log file for clamd, I saw 
the update is successful. But only .cvd file timestamp changed, not the *.db* file 
timestamp. Thus, the viruses.db* are not updated.

Sorry for my shallow understanding on clamav.

Cheers,
Karis

Depending on traffic, and logging options selected, this can grow fairly 
quickly. If log entries are lost, debugging may not be possible, and 
reporting will be incomplete depending on the amount not logged.

If the program already "knows" its reached the file size limit, why not 
just start logging to another file?  This can even be limited via 
configuration option, and -HUP would never be requiered.

[Clamav-users] Clamdscan hanging when clamd checks/reloads database

2004-03-11 Thread Robert Blayzor
I didn't get any responses on this, so I'm trying a repost of this:

Using clamd devel-20040304 on FreeBSD 4.9

On several occasions now we've noticed that when clamd checks and reloads
the virus database current clamdscan's hang and then time out.

This causes some real problems on a process that uses clamdscan as it thinks
clamd is dead and then just bombs out.

Last messages in the clamd.log are:

Tue Mar  9 19:59:40 2004 -> SelfCheck: Database modification detected.
Forcing reload.
Tue Mar  9 19:59:40 2004 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav
Tue Mar  9 20:06:54 2004 -> Database correctly reloaded (20426 viruses)
Tue Mar  9 20:06:54 2004 -> /var/tmp/scavs/22217/5/msg-6-2.bin:
Worm.SomeFool.Gen-1 FOUND


When checking clamd manually it appears to be running ok... It just whenever
a database reload happens at the time either a clamdscan is in progress or
one is trying to initiate during a reload, the clamdscan process just
hangs...

Any ideas on how to fix this or if more recent devel code has addressed this
issue?

Re: [Clamav-users] clamav hpux make problems

2004-03-11 Thread Richard Nairn
I have a HPUX 11.00 machine with GCC, I tried to compile the latest 
sendmail with milter, and use the clamav-milter with it. I was never able 
to get the milter library compiled for sendmail, and thus clamav-milter to 
work.  Did you have any success with that?  My issue is I only have the 
base compiler for it, not an ANSI compiler so I haven't been able to get 
both packages compiled. I switched my mail over to an Alpha machine 
running linux

The idea is to include aliases in a signature and allow clamscan/clamd
to print them optionally, eg.

clamscan foo
foo: Worm.SomeFool FOUND

clamscan --aliases foo
foo: Worm.SomeFool W32.Netsky FOUND

Neither do I.

No, it couldn't. The output is extremely simple to parse (because virus
names don't contain colons), look at the simple example:

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char *out = "/some/file/with:colon: VIRUS FOUND\n", *pt;

for(pt = out + strlen(out) - 1; *pt != ':'; pt--);
pt += 2;
printf("%s", pt);
return 1;
}

Of course you can adapt ClamAV to your needs but that changes won't be
incorporated into the main tree.

ClamAV already works great using Windows.  Our product interfaces with it
without any problems what so ever.  That's part of the calling programs
responsibility.  For what Scott charges, he should make them changes to his
program if he wants to support ClamAV fully.

No rewriting/modifying ClamAV is required.  The calling applicaiton just
needs to know how to parse the results.

There are too many existing packages which call ClamAV and expect to be able 
to understand the result which comes back.   There's no reason you can't 
write a simple perl script (perhaps awk would do it?) to call ClamAV, 
rearrange the output as you want, and return the new format to your 
application.

ClamAV is (mainly) used on Unix systems - mostly Linux & BSD, therefore 
integration with a Windows mail server seems a minority interest.

ClamAV has been made to work under Windows using the Cygwin environment - 
nothing to stop you rewriting the output as described above (or even 
modifying the source to produce a different format given a command-line 
option to be "Declude-compatible"?).

Sounds like an excellent idea (but I'm not on the development team).   Since 
ClamAV is GPL, however, you're free to do any hacks you like; the only

Sorry to hear that the output format is frozen in time.

Declude Virus is one product (http://www.declude.com) produced by
Computerized Horizons that interfaces with Imail (http://www.ipswitch.com),
a popular  (non-exchange) email server for Windows.

Declude Virus provides the interface hook into the SMTP server, handles mime
decoding etc., and then uses your choice of command line virus scanner(s) to
do the actual virus check.  If a virus is detected, Declude virus then
provides the usual options for dealing with the email.

One of its options is to parse the virus scan output for the name of the
virus that was found and present it as an "environment type" variable for
reporting in logs and in (optional) generated emails to the intended
receipent, sender, local and remote postmasters, etc.

A feature just recently added is the ability to check the virus name against
a
database of viruses that are known to forge the from address.  If found in
this
database, then the from address is replaced by [forged] and can be used to
limit
who gets notified about the infected email.

So as you can see, I'd like Declude to parse the output and capture the
virus name.  Declude support tells me there's a "standard" format for the
report output and ClamAV doesn't adhere to the "standard".  AVG, F-Prot,
F-Secure, Inoculan, McAfee, and Sophos do.  I don't know where the
"standard" came from yet.

If an option were added to clamscan (i.e. --declude) to change the output
format, could that change be incorporated into the source CVS?  It sounds
like Scott at Declude knows exactly where to make the change and I could
probably hack up the
rest of the necessary patches (it would be my first open source code
contribution).

Brad Morgan

Maybe I spoke to soon... if you guys are already working on this great - how
will aliases be identified and submissions be processed?

I've heard that the bigger manufacturers often copy the first known name -
is there a way to get in that peer group?

Will the system handle multiple aliases in the event it occurs?

Will the system identify the "owner" of the alias (like norton / sophos /
etc.)

Thanks!

I like it!

Should be quite simple to implement and very workable - depending on the
will of the powers that be to maintain...

A little more complex idea would be to create a cololaborative maintenance
system allowing the users to update and complete the information - a simple
voting system could accept mutliple submissions from confirmed contributors
as validation...

With such a database (downloadable like freshclam currently maintains
regular virus db) we could issue warnings that make more sense to users of
bigger name commercial products, and even generate links to their
educational content on the virii...

The feeling I get is that clam detects the virus - generates the sig and
done... Norton, etc. decode it and see what it does and then publish the
info - when the link between the clam viruss and the norton name is made
(for example) a link to that content would let the clam user know what they
found and what potential damage it could or might have already caused.

The developers of clam already have probably got their plates full with clam
issues... I could (as I imagine many others) consider building and hosting
something like this if there was enough support for it - thoughts?

Thanks!

Just a quick thank you to all of you who help with clamav! I use clamav on
my mailserver via MailScanner. (I'm using MailScanner with F-Secure and
ClamAV) Several times ClamAV is the only antivirus that will see viruses via
email. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

Thanks for your reply.
Several questions:
1. which virus database amavis 0.66 uses? viruses.db or viruses.db2 or both?
 

Not amavis 0.66. Clamav 0.66.
Antoni's reply is correct : ClamAV will use any/all files which end in 
.db or .db?
But since you use 0.66, you don't need to have any *.db*. The default db 
is *.cvd.

See this?
"
Thu Mar 11 23:15:06 2004 -> Protecting against 40864 viruses.

"
This is too much. It means clamav is reading the *.cvd and viruses.*. 
Better remove the viruses.*
since the signatures are the same anyway.

2. When I do a restart on clamd service, I can't find: Database correctly reloaded message.

 

On restart, you should look for "Protecting against xxx viruses".
However, during clamd runs it will perform self checks periodically and 
reload the database as needed,
producing the "Database correctly reloaded" message.
On newer versions, freshclam will also notify clamd to reload if a new 
database version is available, producing
in freshclam.log entries like

"
Database updated (20432 signatures) from clamav.antispam.or.id 
(202.134.0.71).
Clamd successfully notified about the update.
"

You should remove your viruses.*, restart clamd, and try again.
If that still don't work, try upgrading to latest stable or CVS snapshot 
(I recommend latest snapshot).

Fajar

At the moment, all I'm managing is word-of-mouth praise etc.

Both.   In fact ClamAV will use any/all files which end in .db or .db? 
(wildcard) in the appropriate directory.   You can thus easily add your own 
signatures (if you want to) just by putting them in your own file called 
something like mysigs.db, and those will get used alongside the main database 
files, without being overwritten when there's an update.

Assuming you use clamd, check to make sure that the database is reloaded 
correctly.
I put clamd logs in a file. Yours might be on syslog.
There should be something like

Thu Mar 11 05:20:29 2004 -> Reading databases from /usr/local/share/clamav
Thu Mar 11 05:20:33 2004 -> Database correctly reloaded (20432 viruses)
Upgrading clamav to current stable version or CVS snapshot wouldn't hurt 
either.

[Clamav-users] Virus scanned by clamav.net but updated db missed it

2004-03-11 Thread Karis Matik
Clam Users/Developers:

First of all, I'd like to thank for all your great work with clam AV.
I currently have a mail server with the following specs:
Mandrake 9.2
clamav version 0.66 (installed from mandrake RPM)
spamassassin
amavis
It runs okay, but I found something strange.

Got an email with strange zip attachment. I submit the attachment to clamav.net for 
checking if the database recognizes the virus. The check result is:

File is valid, and was successfully uploaded. clamav scans the file ... 
Clamav-Output:/tmp/phpjPpvQe: Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd FOUND
And found something: Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd  

Obviously the amavis in my mail server can't pick it up.
I checked the freshclam log, and I found the database has been updated (hourly):

ClamAV update process started at Thu Mar 11 20:01:00 2004
main.cvd is up to date (version: 21, sigs: 20094, f-level: 1, builder: tkojm)
daily.cvd is up to date (version: 176, sigs: 338, f-level: 1, builder: ddm)

As of March 11 2004, my database is recent. But when I do:
less viruses.db
And I looked for Worm.Bagle.Gen-zippwd, I can't get one. I only found: Worm.Bagle.A

The md5sum of my database is: 4e4f1a294d2748ed1ee76b232d2e, which I believe 
up-to-date as of march 11 2004.

Any one can give me a hint what's going on with the update?

Thank you.

Regards,
Karis

RE: [Clamav-users] Virus aliases

2004-03-11 Thread Paul Walsh
No idea how easy this would be to implement but here goes:

As well as the virus signature databases, how about having an alias
database which would contain a record for each virus, indicating its
ClamAV name along with those used by the more mainstream AV software
like Sophos, McAfee etc. Then have the scanning software (clamd etc.)
accept a commandline switch to indicate your preferred naming. That way,
if you also use Sopos/McAfee/whatever on internal servers you could get
ClamAV to report an infection using the same naming as internally.  Of
course, as the Clam sigs are usually ahead of the rest, the aliases for
a particular virus would all be set to ClamAV's chosen name. Then, as
the other vendors get their signatures out the aliases could be updated
accordingly.

Workable/unworkable/insane idea?

Paul

[Clamav-users] Virus aliases

2004-03-11 Thread Dave Ewart
Hello,

(I am new to the list, but have scanned the archives and have been
unable to find a complete answer to this, although it has been brought
up once or twice ...)

I'd like to be able to see the alias names for detected viruses.  The
clamav-virusdb announcements include aliases, but searching the mail
archives is a rather haphazard way of matching up viruses with different
aliases.

I was originally rather alarmed because, when I first installed ClamAV
last week, I did:

> sigtool --list-sigs | grep -i netsky

and got nothing back!  My initial response was "Whoa!  It's out of date
..."

I use ClamAV and Sophos in series on our mail server and would like to
tie up which viruses are actually the same thing ...

There was a message on the archives from about three weeks ago from
someone who was planning to maintain an web page listing the aliases, so
my questions are:

1. Is this web page live?  If so, what's the address?

2. Can the alias details be extracted from the .cvd files?  If not
currently, is there any way to add this detail?

3. Is searching the archives of clamav-virusdb the only way to find
alias names currently?

Cheers,

Dave.

The output format won't change. Please check the 3-rd party software (on
www.clamav.net) for parsing details.

No, that's definitely not a false negative. Password protected viruses
are not dangerous (and not interesting to us) as long as they don't
distribute the password. But anyway you should check the
--detect-encrypted option (CVS).

Looks OK.

When I start clamd, it loads just fine and I can use clamdscan just 
fine.  However, running clamav-milter through sendmail results in the 
following from the maillog: 


Did you started clamav-milter daemon? If yes, does it open socket for 
communication with sendmail?
What are the file permissions of this socket?

How did you configure your sendmail.mc?
