I just want to learn the format of ClamAV's signature. So I tried to build a
signature containing a wildcard by myself. The example I used is as follows:

I have made up a signature of: Worm.Yawen (Clam)=61*7c62
where "617c62" means "a|b". Then I put this signature into a .db file. When
I didn't add the * in the signature, it can be used to match the string of
a|b. But once I added the * into the signature, there was an error like
this:

LibClamAV Error: cli_parse_add(): Problem adding signatures (2).
Problem parsing signature at line 1
Problem parsing database at line 1
Can't load daily.db: Malformed database
ERROR: Malformed database

What is wrong in my method of building the signature with wildcard?

Best regards,
Xue Wen
