Hi ,

I write my own Script to add Support to Palo Alto Wildfire Sandbox Function to 
Amavis as a Virus Scanner.

Currently it's a bash script that do the following:


-          First compute a sha256 Hash and determine the mimetype over the 
files presented by amavis

-          Checks if the mimetype is supported by Wildfire to go on

-          Checks if the hash is present in the local redis storage and uses 
the verdict (benign|malware)

-          If the hash isn't present in redis storge it ask the wildfire cloud 
for a verdict.

-          Depending on the answer from the wildfire cloud -> if it's known the 
verdict gets written in the redis storage and used or if it's unknown the file 
gets uploaded to the Cloud for inspection.

You need a Wildfire Subscription to get use of these sandbox system.

The Script tells amavis if a supported file is malicious or not with the 
corresponding exit codes.

The drawback of unknown malicious files is that they pass the first check and 
only further mails get blocked.

It would be nice if the script cloud tell amavis to do a smtp 450 in a case 
were a unknown file is uploaded. For example by having a third exit code.

Is there already such a function?

If anybody is interested in that script give me a message.

Regards Marc
