[Clamav-devel] FreeBSD 6.2 ClamAV/zlib problems and solution

2010-04-16 Thread Török Edwin

Hi,

I just had a chat on #clamav with 2 people having problem with ClamAV 
0.96 on FreeBSD 6.2. (everything was OK on FreeBSD 6.3)


The symptom is that clamscan/clamd never starts, just loops infinitely 
trying to load the DB, --debug shows:

Libclamav debug: in cli_tgzload()

The system was using zlib 1.2.3, and gzseek() looked broken (it always 
returned 0 for gzseek(0, SEEK_CUR), in fact it moved the file position 
to 0 again).


Solution was to use upstream zlib 1.2.3 instead of system one:
$ wget http://www.zlib.net/fossils/zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
$ tar xzvf zlib-1.2.3.tar.gz
$ cd zlib-1.2.3
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr -s
$ make
# make install

Does FreeBSD 6.2 patch zlib in any way that could cause this error?

Best regards,
--Edwin

[Clamav-devel] VirusDB hashes and CVE

2010-04-16 Thread Henri Salo
It would be very nice to see hashes and possible CVEs in 
submissions in virusdb-mailinglist. Every submission should have at
least MD5-, SHA1-checksums and possible CVE listed. What do you think?

Of the databases?

The database itself contains the hash, and it is digitally signed.
The public key for that is embedded in clamav, and freshclam checks 
those digital signatures.


You can run sigtool --info on a CVD and find out the MD5 hash, the 
digital signature.
Also the newer databases contain sha256 hashes (in daily/main.info), and 
their corresponding digital signatures.



and possible CVE listed.


I'm not sure what you mean by this. Do you mean CVE references for 
exploits we detect?

Nope. Of the files submitted to virusdb and the hashes could be in for
example:
http://lurker.clamav.net/message/20090116.041716.f1c8d70e.en.html

CVE-ID's of the submitted files IF CVE-ID is available.

Ah for the samples. That might be doable.
Please open an enhancement request on our bugzilla (component website 
and other services).

I'm not sure if people mention CVE IDs, and it would be extra work for 
sigmakers to lookup if there is a CVE associated.
