I've had so many positives that I couldn't examine them all.  Does this 
happen to others?  What do you do for that?



and remember that false negatives do happen frequently


How do we become aware of false negatives?

ClamAV >= 0.105 requires Rust. Rust *is* available for rhel7 - see

IIRC (I may not), EPEL rules say that packages cannot be built with
devtools, so I am not sure what EPEL will be doing when 0.103 reaches
EOL in September.


Rust is definitely available in the latest Fedora (v.37), along with a 
lot of libraries, tools, and other ancillaries.

In that event the very substantial and formulaic email header or attachment 
syntax could radically eliminate false positives.

[clamav-users] Heueristics.Structured.CreditCardNumber ???

2023-02-24 Thread musc via clamav-users
This is another frequent hit I get doing a clamdscan: 
Heueristics.Structured.CreditCardNumber

I've read of a scam which prompts people to apply for a credit card, or says 
falsely that a person has already a credit card... responding to either leads 
to a scam.

Are eliminating these two scams the only reasons for searching out files 
containing credit card numbers? Or are there other reasons we should be aware 
of?

In a security podcast I listened to not too long ago it spoke of an exploit 
against iPhones which was quite hazardous, was concealed inside of an image 
file, which would immediately take control of the iPhone. There's not enough 
information for me to say that this is that exploit. Maybe it is, maybe it's 
something similar, or maybe it's simply a bit of corruption of the jpg file and 
actually relatively harmless. There are a lot of possibilities. You're right, 
we don't want to make any premature assumptions, neither overestimate nor 
underestimate the hazard. The purpose of my post was to find more information 
in order to make a proper evaluation. Thanks for helping me clarify that.

[clamav-users] What is the actual danger of this?

2023-02-22 Thread musc via clamav-users
A clamdscan flagged quite a few files on my system as 
Heueristics.Broken.Media.JPEG.JFIFmarkerBadPosition. What kind of exploit is 
that? And what kind of danger does it pose? (What does it do?) Is it for all 
systems? Or just for Windows?

A whole lot of web searching turned up nothing. Does anyone know?

TIA.
