Um, no making fun here - I opened it.  I thought it was just spam someone
forwarded it to my spam account. I didn't find the Trojan downloader on my
PC.  I'm ASSUMING that you have to hit the check prices macro button as no
macro seemed to auto-execute... 

I just downloaded the intelligent updater for NAV 9 (as the live update
button only gave me definitions of the 21st) and am running a scan now.

Remind me not to make so much fun of other people for opening attachments.

I have added the request to the wish list. We are focusing on replicating
problems and fixing items from the list I had posted earlier last week. We
are looking to do a release Thursday 8 July it is currently under going
testing. This is all obviously subject to change just trying to keep you
informed.
 
Items in next release:
 
1. Fix - ALLOWVULNERABILITIESFROM - full email address only 

2. Fix - QUEUEFILE_SAVEFILE log shows incorrect directory path  
 
3. Add - Error in SM envelope file: if errors are found the mail will be
moved to the error directory

4. Add - If the headers files are not found then the data file is moved to
error directory. 

5. Add - A new vulnerability test NONSTANDARDCRLF will be included to check
for the end of the headers.

John,

Not to say that this wouldn't be something that is nice to have, I can think
of dozens of things that are very largely useful on a much more regular
basis.  In fact, the current functionality provides an appropriate mechanism
for blocking these as-is.

I would just simply like to see Declude catch up by fixing the known bugs
first.  When they catch up, then certainly they should consider feature
requests, but it would make sense focus on new tests and improving existing
ones, along with refining functionality.  I will personally continue to hold
back from such discussions until it is clear that they are capable of
handling the bugs.

Sorry to make an example of you here; that's not the intention of course.  I
just thought that it would be constructive to point this stuff out for the
benefit of Declude and it's customers alike.

Marc, check the contents of your c:\ for 666INSE_1.EXE as this is the
dropper file that the macro drops.  If it's there, the macro was
executed, and the dropper has probably also download further malware.

Modern versions of Office will, by default, not execute the macro so you
might be safe.

I don't know if Symantec has signatures for this document, the dropper
or the payload it downloads.  Trend Micro does, so you could use their
web based HouseCall antivirus scanner from here:

David,

I'm just wondering about the issue with the invalid characters in the 
Mail From's that caused massive spam leakage almost a month ago.  Is 
this too supposed to be fixed?


I'm also very, very curious about the other bugs such as long base 64 
encoding causing Declude Virus to fail decoding, WHITELIST IP being 
applied before IPBYPASS, and the issue where Declude's headers are 
inserted at the bottom of the message when the headers don't use proper 
CRLF line breaks?


Thanks,

Re: [Declude.Virus] New Virus: zipped word doc with Macro-Virus

2006-06-28 Thread Matt




David,

The CRLF thing doesn't affect me since I have my own solution, however
for those that use Subject tagging, adding another test won't help
unless they decide to just simply delete such messages. The header
boundary could be programatically determined with a great deal of ease
(a simple regexp), and Declude could insert it's headers into the
correct place if this was done. Introducing tests to score conditions
that one's software does not handle correctly is not a fix, it's a
work-around.

Regarding the other things, I'm very alarmed that the official position
is still not even recognizing that these bugs surely exist, much less
fixed at this point. This concerns me greatly since I rely on this
product for my business, and if it takes months to just confirm a bug,
especially one that is widely reported, I can't responsibly rely on
that product. It is pretty much the same thing as having a virus
scanner that takes months to catch a particular virus, or having a Web
browser that is never patch for a critical flaw. I consider both the
Mail From issue and the base 64 encoding issues to be critical flaws
that warrant immediate fixes. I am not alone in this. If you don't
have a lot of people still griping about this stuff, it is because they
are either not aware of the flaws, or they have already given up on
trying to get you guys to fix them, or given up on relying on Declude
altogether. These things should be fixed in hours or days and not
weeks or months when they occur.

I assume that you are not the person making these development
decisions, so this isn't directed at you, but those that make the calls
need to fully understand the critical nature of these flaws, and their
role in making sure that Declude can respond rapidly to such things not
just now, but as they occur in the future.

Thanks,

Matt

Matt,
 
The CRLF problem has more to do with the email server and not Declude,
emails that are so badly broken should be either rejected by the email
server or these headers should be standardized by the email server.
Eitherway this is a much more complex issue than you make it out to be, by
just fixing it with a simple regexp, if it was as easy as that, do you not
think we would have done this already ?

Introducing tests to score conditions that one's software does not handle
correctly is not a fix, it's a work-around. This is not how we are dealing
with this issue, it is not an additional Spam test as I clearly stated we
are dealing with this as a vulnerability because this should be addressed at
the email server level and not Declude, therefore the message will be
quarentined - as every instance we have seen of this has been invalid email.

The Long base 64 encoding is a similar issue whereby the mail server should
deal with these before they get to Declude as such emails are clearly in
violation of the RFC's and should be treated as suspect from the very
beginning.

To conclude, we are making every effort to address these issues because it
is not being done at the server level, have you contacted Imail and asked
for their response and/or fix ?

David,

The CRLF thing doesn't affect me since I have my own solution, however for
those that use Subject tagging, adding another test won't help unless they
decide to just simply delete such messages.  The header boundary could be
programatically determined with a great deal of ease (a simple regexp), and
Declude could insert it's headers into the correct place if this was done.
Introducing tests to score conditions that one's software does not handle
correctly is not a fix, it's a work-around.

Regarding the other things, I'm very alarmed that the official position is
still not even recognizing that these bugs surely exist, much less fixed at
this point.  This concerns me greatly since I rely on this product for my
business, and if it takes months to just confirm a bug, especially one that
is widely reported, I can't responsibly rely on that product.  It is pretty
much the same thing as having a virus scanner that takes months to catch a
particular virus, or having a Web browser that is never patch for a critical
flaw.  I consider both the Mail From issue and the base 64 encoding issues
to be critical flaws that warrant immediate fixes.  I am not alone in this.
If you don't have a lot of people still griping about this stuff, it is
because they are either not aware of the flaws, or they have already given
up on trying to get you guys to fix them, or given up on relying on Declude
altogether.  These things should be fixed in hours or days and not weeks or
months when they occur.

I assume that you are not the person making these development decisions, so
this isn't directed at you, but those that make the calls need to fully
understand the critical nature of these flaws, and their role in making sure
that Declude can respond rapidly to such things not just now, but as they
occur in the future.

Thanks,

Re: [Declude.Virus] New Virus: zipped word doc with Macro-Virus

2006-06-28 Thread Matt

David,

Mail servers have absolutely no requirement to inspect the contents of 
the data.  This is Declude's job to do.  Additionally, most mail clients 
do support both the CR flaw as well as the long base64  encoding flaw, 
so anything making it past Declude due to the holes created by these 
bugs is a critical flaw.  There are so many things out there that 
violate the RFC's, it's almost not even worth arguing about who's 
responsibility it is since these things definitely exist and need to be 
dealt with appropriately.


The issue with the CR's and Declude is not technically a vulnerability 
for any application out there besides Declude itself.  Vulnerabilities 
in Declude have historically been formatting supported by mail clients 
which could be used to sneak past encoded attachments or scripting which 
could cause auto-execution or bypassing of virus scanners.  The 
vulnerability only exists because Declude's SUBJECT action and header 
appending does not work appropriately, and some people chose to filter 
on such things instead of relying on other actions.


I do in fact receive legitimate E-mail that have only CR's.  Any PHP 
programmer out there can make this mistake just like multiple vendors 
are violating RFC's by including a space in the SMTP commands where they 
don't belong, or adding headers that don't properly bracket IP's, etc.  
If this is introduced as a vulnerability, I want to turn it off.  The 
reason is because I don't want to scan a directory full of Q and D files 
searching for false positives, and I know that they will exist.  Others 
may be less anal about this, or have different traffic patterns that 
isolates them from such issues, or might simply not care.  Ultimately 
however, if you just simply placed the Declude inserted headers in the 
best possible place (before the first CRCR) then this wouldn't be an 
issue.


I find it hard to believe that no one there can figure out how to do that.

Regardless of who is right or wrong, right now every Declude user is 
vulnerable to viruses that may exploit the holes created by the base64 
encoding error and the invalid character in the Mail From error.  There 
is a virus that has been spreading for over a year that bypasses 
Declude's Virus' calling of virus scanners due to the long encoding 
lines, and the only reason why this hasn't become an issue is because he 
only sends EXE's which most of us block by default and only causes 
backscatter.  If someone were to write a virus that was in a zip or a 
DOC though, which most of us don't block, it would bypass our virus 
scanners 100% of the time.  If they wanted to exploit some scripting 
holes in mail clients, all they would have to do is send with a non 
ASCII character in the Mail From and they're good to go right past 
Declude.  This is why these things are critical in nature.


I don't want to continually bring this stuff up, I just want you guys to 
get it.  Pretend for a second that I am right, and then look back at 
what you are doing.  Please.


Matt

I haven't seen any yet; I don't know if F-Prot is catching them.

From the published information at the antivirus vendors' sites, I'm
using the BANNAME feature, e.g.

BANNAME My_Notebook.doc

And further, I catch most of the viruses as junkmail because they
typically come from zombie machines, so they're heavily IP4R listed.

I do use a SKIPATTACH filter (which I've previously shared on the list,
so it's in the web archive if anyone wants it) and I've lowered the
weight of that.

I don't think this virus is spreading well, it's not receiving much
attention, and Trend Micro's statistics graph is flatlined.  I think if
your mailserver is getting them, you'll continue to get them, otherwise,
it's not very likely.

Actually, it is CLAMAV catching it.  Not sure about McAfee as I stop on 
first virus.  F-Prot is def. not catching it though.

RE: [Declude.Virus] New Virus: zipped word doc with Macro-Virus

2006-06-27 Thread Colbeck, Andrew
JT Declude, this is a feature who's time has come.

Hear, hear!  The ability to ban filenames that are contained in archives
would be a good feature, and most of the code must be in place, because
Declude Virus already pulls apart at least the zip file format for
selective file scanning.

It is also well placed in the market.  I checked my up-to-the-minute
ScanMail for Exchange from Trend Micro, and they don't have that
feature.  I also tested it to see whether filename blocking would work
anyway, and no, it didn't.

Re: [Declude.Virus] New Virus: zipped word doc with Macro-Virus

2006-06-27 Thread Matt




John,

Not to say that this wouldn't be something that is nice to have, I can
think of dozens of things that are very largely useful on a much more
regular basis. In fact, the current functionality provides an
appropriate mechanism for blocking these as-is.

I would just simply like to see Declude catch up by fixing the known
bugs first. When they catch up, then certainly they should consider
feature requests, but it would make sense focus on new tests and
improving existing ones, along with refining functionality. I will
personally continue to hold back from such discussions until it is
clear that they are capable of handling the bugs.

Sorry to make an example of you here; that's not the intention of
course. I just thought that it would be constructive to point this
stuff out for the benefit of Declude and it's customers alike.

Matt
