[Clamav-users] License violation in unrar code

2007-10-23 Thread Enrico Scholz
Hi,

citing from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=334371

  While investigating the possible inclusion of a GPL'd unrar package
  (see Bugzilla 319831), it was discovered that clamav contained a RAR
  v3 implementation that was copied/derived from the RARlabs unrar
  source code. Eugene Roshal of RARlabs confirmed that they did not
  give permission for any RAR v3 implementation to be used under the
  GPL, only under the unrar license (which is GPL incompatible).



Therefore: what is the origin of RAR v3 code? Who gave the permissions
to license it under GPLv2+? How can we proceed so that clamav can be
used legally?

Re: [Clamav-users] possible GPG verify problem

2007-10-23 Thread Tilman Schmidt
P T schrieb:
 I downloaded clam av from the clam av site.  However when I check the 
 signature I get that basically it isn't a trusted signature.  How am I doing 
 this wrong?

 gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!   
 gpg:  There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.

In order to get rid of that message (and so that the signature actually
produces any security benefit) you have to give your GPG installation a
means of verifying that the public key it's using for checking the
signature can be trusted to be really Tomasz' key. There are two ways to
do that:

- Either you declare your trust in one of the existing signers on that key.
  Normally you do that only if you know him or her personally or if it is
  some well-known and trusted signing authority like CAcert or Heise.
  Unfortunately, Tomasz' key is not signed by one of the latter.

- Or you check for yourself that the key is indeed Tomasz', by verifying
  the fingerprint:

 Primary key fingerprint: 0DCA 5A08 407D 5288 279D  B434 5482 2DC8 985A 444B 

  and then sign the key with your own GPG key. This is normally done in a
  face to face meeting where the key owner hands you the correct fingerprint
  and you check his/her ID, but depending on your security concerns (or lack
  thereof), other more or less trusted channels such as a publication in a
  printed magazine or book may be sufficient.

[Clamav-users] Oversized.PDF

2007-10-23 Thread ursleodon
Hi,

I get in trouble with the following virus signature:

virus was found: Oversized.PDF

As I can see, the virus is triggered by pdf.c in conjunction with
maxratio config parameter.
Until today there has been only (and many) false positives according to this 
alert.

Is there a way to disable or bypass the problem?
I don't want to increase the maxratio-parameter to unlimited because it 
controls zip-files as well.

I've got the problem since 2007-02-10. Maybe there is a special signature 
involved?
Can I disable a special signature?

Thanks a lot,
Urs

[Clamav-users] clamav-milter: timeout during data read

2007-10-23 Thread Ludek Finstrle
Hello,

  I've noticed that clamav has some problems. I've found two strange
situations (logs):

1)

Oct 23 06:46:40 server sendmail[9505]: l9N4kcJE009505: from=[EMAIL 
PROTECTED], size=24270, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=[EMAIL PROTECTED], 
proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=p54ACF66C.dip.t-dialin.net [84.172.246.108]
Oct 23 06:46:40 server clamav-milter[7502]: 
/tmp/clamav-06caa41c9bc06f15eb78a6234dc2fb90/msg.U2hvF8: Worm.SomeFool.D FOUND

X-Virus-Scanned: ClamAV 0.91.2/4568/Tue Oct 23 06:23:16 2007 on smtp.domain
Oct 23 06:46:40 server sendmail[9505]: l9N4kcJE009505: Milter add: header: 
X-Virus-Status: Infected with Worm.SomeFool.D
Oct 23 06:50:40 server sendmail[9505]: l9N4kcJE009505: Milter (clamav): timeout 
during data read
Oct 23 06:50:40 server sendmail[9505]: l9N4kcJE009505: Milter (clamav): to 
error state
Oct 23 06:50:46 server sendmail[9505]: l9N4kcJE009505: Milter add: header: 
X-Spam-Flag: YES
...

It seems to me all messages with virus timed out (why?).

2)

Oct 22 18:26:42 server sendmail[3965]: l9MGQgoK003965: from=[EMAIL 
PROTECTED], size=5702, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=[EMAIL PROTECTED], 
bodytype=8BITMIME, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=dahlia.mendelu.cz 
[195.178.72.10]
Oct 22 18:30:42 server sendmail[3965]: l9MGQgoK003965: Milter (clamav): timeout 
during data read
Oct 22 18:30:42 server sendmail[3965]: l9MGQgoK003965: Milter (clamav): to 
error state
Oct 22 18:30:53 server sendmail[3965]: l9MGQgoK003965: Milter add: header: 
X-Spam-Status: No, hits=-0.4/5.0 learn=no
...

Users report this happen usually with bigger e-mails. Mailer client show
them error message (client time out - but sendmail deliver the mail) so
they resend it second time without problem. I have no problematic e-mail.

My configuration:
CentOS 4.5: sendmail 8.13.1-3.2.el4, clamav 0.91.2 (self-compiled), XFS fs

clamav configuration:
./configure --prefix=/some/path --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-milter 
--with-dbdir=/home/clamav --enable-bigstack --enable-id-check --disable-clamuko 
--with-tcpwrappers --disable-zlib-vcheck

I'm running clamav-milter this way:
/some/path/clamav-milter -fdNH local:/var/run/clamav/milter.sock

sendmail config (clamav related):
O InputMailFilters=clamav,spamassassin
Xclamav, S=local:/var/run/clamav/milter.sock, F=, T=C:15;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m

Thanks for some hint

Ditto - a data harvesting page if ever I've seen one. I think the least useful

I used a junk e-mail account, they only use the e-mail for vote 
verification. So far, no spam. If I get any before the voting closes, 
I'll report it back.

Thanks,
