FYI,

I was using my work computer to jigdo-download a debian-stretch-source-DVD-iso 
to my computer.  I was connected to the mirror debian.cc.lehigh.edu.

During the transfer, my company's malware/virus filters flagged one of the 
files that came across.  Here are the particulars of the alert:

----------------------------------------------------------

File Name: debian.cc.lehigh.edu/debian/pool/main/d/dbacl/dbacl_1.12.orig.tar.gz
MD5: 048d8cf68e277ba2ab5d159dc395a65d

Alert: Detected malware using "FSS_AutoMDE_Binary"/Trojan.JS.NoClose.a
Reason for scan: On 2017-12-08 05:23:29, we received Fidelis Alert 187851, 
which indicates that GD-MS system [IP of my laptop] (URL of my laptop) 
connected to system 128.180.2.105 (debian.cc.lehigh.edu), located in Bethlehem, 
PA and possibly downloaded malware via the file dbacl_1.12.orig.tar.gz. of the 
60 malware detection engines consulted, 23 engines positively identified 
variants of the Trojan.JS.NoClose.a malware.

----------------------------------------------------------

I read the description of the package and it mentioned that the application 
contains some functionality for recognizing spam.  Perhaps the source code for 
this functionality is what triggered the alert?

If you have any information one this, can you let me know?
Thanks,
Warren Hastings
