[Clamav-users] Web Site Authentication Prior to VirusDB download

2006-02-02 Thread Robert . Setterlund
The company I work for has implemented a firewall that only allows certain 
activity through it.  I have requested that the user agent string 
"clamav/*" be allowed to communicate with the internet.  The request has 
been refused because of security concerns.  The approving authority is 
concerned that there does not appear to be any way of verifying that the 
web site the database is being downloaded from is the official site.  The 
authority would like to see either a way of supplying a user id and 
password for authentication to the site or an exchange of SSLv2 keys. With 
the current clamav software is authentication possible?

The virus db file is signed, that is how it maintains integrity. 

The official sites could be compromised, using that as your check is someone 
of false security. However there is no 'official' site, there is an every 
growing and changing system of mirrors.

There is a new option in the CVS version which allows you to change the
user agent string to something already allowed by the filters.. not
necessarily the way to solve it but it would work!

[Clamav-users] 100% CPU clamav samba-vscan thunderbird

2006-02-02 Thread Paulo Ricardo Bruck
Hi guys

environment:

Debian Sarge 3.1
samba3.0.14a-3sarge
clamav-daemon  0.88-0volatile
vscan-samba 3.0.6b

When I test w/ eicar w/samba or w/ clamscan it works like a charm, but
when I tried to look at thunderbird mail at [ home] in samba, CPU
increase till 100%. 
This problem only occurs when any user tries to read/receive an email.

Any clues about it? Am I asking at the right list?

openantivir list is out..

thanks in advance

[Clamav-users] 0.88 upgrade failed on ubuntu

Hi everybody,

I am running Ubuntu Breezy.
I have tried to upgrade ClamAV to 0.88 form 0.87 through Synaptic, but
the (needed) libgmp3 has been renamed by Ubuntu people to libgmp3c2. Is
there anything I can do to resolve the dependence?

Hi,

This is probably because of your settings for vscan-samba.
Here are my settings, although you may have to tweak things to get
performance up.

You could also try setting one of the 'scan on open' / 'close' flags to
no to see if that suites your needs.

- --- in samba-vscan.conf ---

max file size = 8388608 ; 8M

- 

You could also try the 0.40 snapshot for samba-vscan-clamav.  I have a
copy in my RPM.
http://support.intcomgrp.com/mirror/fedora-core/beta/src/samba-vscan-clamav-0.4.0-2.fc1.src.rpm

You probably are using IMAP or a huge inbox, try the max file size limit
first.

Let me know,
James Kosin

Ciao Marco,
you should really send a bug report to your package maintainer.

Meanwhile you may consider compiling ClamAV yourself.

Mixing and matching apt repositories works about as well as mixing and
matching rpm repositories - in other words, it doesn't.

I suggest downloading the packages for 0.88 from Debian, and rebuilding
them on your ubuntu machine.  The binary debs you get will then be built
against the ubuntu versions of the libraries.

The tar code in the CVS version does indeed support more

You probably want amavisd-new.  That is the currently supported version.

I searched the documentation and cannot find any thing useful.
postfix can't work directly with clam.  however, i hear good things  
about a program called "MailScanner".  I'm setting up a gentoo box to  
test it.  Don't discount amavis just because it hasn't been updated  
in over a year.  it definately does work.  And it's really not very

Ok, Lets start again.

(1)  Is the mail being stored on a samba share?  Eg: Thunderbird getting
mail and putting it in mail-boxes that are on the server share.

(2)  Do you get any improvement if you temporarily turn off the
samba-vscan?  Just trying to see if this is with samba-vscan or the
Thunderbird client itself.

(3)  Try lowering the max file size option.  samba-vscan does have a
performance hit associated with it.

(4)  Try excluding the mail-box files from being scanned.  Thunderbird
like almost all email clients, won't like the mail-box files
disappearing on them.  Had this problem many times especially with

 You don't need to scan twice; especially if you already have

[Clamav-users] Problem Upgrading to version 0.88 on HP-UX 10.20

Hi there -

 

I have downloaded the source code for version 0.88 onto an HP-UX 10.20 system.
After gunzipping and untarring the file, I

run the configure script as a sudo user and it appears to finish without
problem. When I run the make command, again as 

a sudo user, I get an Error exit code 1. The tail end of the make output is
shown below:

 

manager.c:505: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement

manager.c:568: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement

Re: [Clamav-users] Is CME officially supported/supporting ClamAV?

2006-02-02 Thread Eric Cunningham

The only reason that I care is that when there is hew and cry over a
massively destructive virus, I can point at my virus statistics and  say
"oh, our AV calls CME-24 'worm.vb9' - we've been blocking it for  weeks."
Then I don't have to worry about what name another group might give  it,
and the PHB's will leave me alone for a little while longer.


has anyone ever noticed how much EXTRA work we sysadmins do for that  
reason alone?  There's a lot of cycles spent, collectively, to prove  to 
management what we already know.


I've just been asked if we're scanning for tomorrow's outbreak alert and 
still have not found anything official.  I've found in the mailing lists 
that CME-24 is synonymous with worm.vb-8 and worm.vb-9 but it took some 
digging.  I know I for one would appreciate it if clamav participated in 
the CME naming conventions as it would save me a lot of time.


I have yet to see so many AV vendors cooperate to this extent before. 
I've scanned several major vendor's websites for cme-24 and they all 
list among their aliases cme-24 in a prominent display.


I don't really see the harm aside from Mitre conspiracies.  Just my $.02

You are using an option in the compiler that causes warnings to be treated as

As at least one other person has mentioned, you want amavisd-new, not amavis
which is essentially defunct.  Amavisd-new is updated as needed, with new
functionality added based on community feedback, and has absolutely first
rate support and an extremely knowledgeable group of folks on the mailing
list.  I highly recommend it, as does the author of The Book of Postfix,
Ralf Hildebrandt.

http://www.ijs.si/software/amavisd/

Amavisd-new also integrates with SpamAssassin, DCC, vipuls-razor, and
others.

You are using an option in the compiler that causes warnings to be treated as
errors, that is why this build failed.

With gcc the option is -Werror, perhaps you did put that in CFLAGS or your

Re: [Clamav-users] Is CME officially supported/supporting ClamAV?

2006-02-02 Thread John Jolet


I've just been asked if we're scanning for tomorrow's outbreak  
alert and still have not found anything official.  I've found in  
the mailing lists that CME-24 is synonymous with worm.vb-8 and  
worm.vb-9 but it took some digging.  I know I for one would  
appreciate it if clamav participated in the CME naming conventions  
as it would save me a lot of time.


I have yet to see so many AV vendors cooperate to this extent  
before. I've scanned several major vendor's websites for cme-24 and  
they all list among their aliases cme-24 in a prominent display.


I don't really see the harm aside from Mitre conspiracies.  Just my  
$.02

I don't see any harm either...just no value.  Course, I have to admit

Oh, that's ok.  It was your statement about it not being updated in a year

No.  It has to be explicitly set either in the configure command (i.e.

configure... OK, there is a 4th possibility, not explicit and an ugly one, it

Exactly. And people need to take these conspiracy theories with a tonne
a salt. Just because ONE PERSON implied there was something shady with
the CME organization having "military ties"  doesn't mean there's even a
grain of truth behind it. MITRE and SANS both have long histories in the
InfoSec arena - they do good work.

Someone doesn't want you to succeed I'm afraid.

We run similar rules in our DMZes - and I can tell you that most
commercial AVs *also* don't run from specific sites. The AVs we use (I
won't name names) also load-share their pattern downloads - and most of
the sites the files can end up coming down from don't even have PTR
records, or at best don't match back to the domains owned by the AV
companies! (i.e. they outsource to content carriers like Akami)

I can't see how your "approving authority" has managed to allow other AV
products while applying such  harsh rules to your ClamAV proposal...

Of course, I'd be quite willing to set up a permanent site that you can
have HTTPS pattern access to for a really big fee!! ;-)

yes, certain *nix email clients have built-in support for clamav.  I know for 
a fact kmail does, and I believe evolution does.

However, I believe virus scanning of emails belongs at the front-door of the 
mail server, so if you have control over your mail server, you should 
investigate how to implement clamav into it.  (unless of course your mail 
server is running on windows, then I don't know ;)

Andrew,

Let's go back to:

> manager.c:505: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement
> manager.c:568: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement

These 2 warnings shouldn't happen.

Do you have a netdb.h file?  Must be under /usr/local but could be somewhere
else if you installed bind (for instance under /usr/local/include/isc).

Does it have a define for HOST_NOT_FOUND?

If it doesn't, and it looks this way for those warnings to appear, then your
resolver installation is bad or somewhere else.

The point is clamav's configure found a netdb.h that does not define
HOST_NOT_FOUND, that produced the warning, and that header is not what is
normally expected.  You have to find out where did that header came from, and if
you have more than one by that name, how to use the good one to build clamav.

I located the netdb.h file in the /usr/include directory as opposed to the

the text HOST_NOT_FOUND appeared to be commented out. Here is the syntax of that
line:
 
#define HOST_NOT_FOUND   1 /* Authoritative Answer Host not found */
 
If the file needs to be located in  /usr/local, can a symbolic link be created

Andrew,

Let's go back to:

> manager.c:505: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement
> manager.c:568: warning: unreachable code at beginning of switch statement

These 2 warnings shouldn't happen.

Do you have a netdb.h file?  Must be under /usr/local but could be somewhere
else if you installed bind (for instance under /usr/local/include/isc).

Does it have a define for HOST_NOT_FOUND?

If it doesn't, and it looks this way for those warnings to appear, then your
resolver installation is bad or somewhere else.

The point is clamav's configure found a netdb.h that does not define
HOST_NOT_FOUND, that produced the warning, and that header is not what is
normally expected.  You have to find out where did that header came from, and if
you have more than one by that name, how to use the good one to build clamav.

This is a correct definition.  It's not surrounded by #if ... #fi, is it?

No, that was my mistake, I wrote the wrong path.

Now back to the original problem, why are those warnings appearing?  Looking at
the code the warning means that h_errno cannot take the value HOST_NOT_FOUND,
h_errno is also defined in netdb.h just above the define.

I can't see how the compiler determined that this part of the code is supposed
to be unreachable (it really is reachable).

That's two strange thing with the compilation, where is the -Werror? and why the
compiler mistakenly thinks that some part of the code is unreachable?

Perhaps I can think of something later.

What version is your gcc?  (i.e. gcc --version)

sorry, but blocking at the firewall/proxy level based on user-agent is
one of the most absurd things I've ever heard.  If they are doing it to
disallow 'viruses' and whatnot from traversing the firewall, well, the
virus writer can TRIVIALLY change the user-agent string to.. say.. IE,
and get right through.  In fact, since clamav provides the source for
you, you should be able to TRIVIALLY change the user-agent string.

grep, $EDITOR, and an exercise for the reader.  Problem solved.
