Hello - I downloaded the Mailman 2.1.2 tarball yesterday, and ran into an issue with a virus scan. McAfee commandline virus scan found Exploit-MIME.gen, a generic MIME format "virus" that exploits the "Microsoft Incorrect MIME Header vulnerability". I downloaded the source tarball yesterday, and the virus scanner hit on it after a crontab job ran uvscan. Below is the output when I scanned the suspect file.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] msgs]# uvscan /usr/local/src/mailman-2.1.2/tests/msgs/nimda.txt /usr/local/src/mailman-2.1.2/tests/msgs/nimda.txt Found the Exploit-MIME.gen virus !!! Is this an issue? Is this the right forum for this question? I would like to install mailman as our company's mailing list manager, but would like to understand this better.
