Re: [Declude.Virus] url file extensions

2006-04-11 Thread Bill Landry
Nick, it's advised not to use it because it take additional time to process 
e-mails with embedded or attached URLs, since it has to simulate a user and 
access the URL in order to scan it.  If you already have a heavily utilized 
system, then you would be wise not to enable this feature.  However, if you 
have available resources, you should be fine.


Also, at least on Linux, you need to have curl installed and compile with 
libcurl support:


Optional Packages:
 --with-PACKAGE[=ARG]use PACKAGE [ARG=yes]
 --with-libcurl  support URLs downloading with libcurl (default=no)

However, I don't know if this is the case with the Windows version of 
ClamAV, since I have never actually run it on Windows.


We have been running with this feature enabled on our two Linux gateways for 
about a year now and thus far have had no problems with it.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Running declude 4.x

2006-02-20 Thread Bill Landry
Title: Message



The was definitely a change between Declude Version 
3.0.5.23 and Version 3.0.5.26 in its handling of header processing. We had 
to roll back to .23 because .26 was causing strange behavior with certain mime 
encapsulated messages. I sent evidence to David Franco-Rocha off-line on 
2/10, but have yet to hear anything back.

using prior versions of Declude, this may be due to the header formating of

I am wondering if the headers showing in the body of this

declude 4.x.

I'm also seeing this with Declude 3.0.5.26. Some mails, like the "Oxygen" mail-list from Panda consistently shows up with some headers shown in the mail. I'm using Outlook 2003.

Re: [Declude.Virus] [IMail Forum] Realistic virus threat?

2006-02-02 Thread Bill Landry



I reported this issue quite some time ago, when 
Scott was still running the show, and never got a satisfactory answer. You 
can scan the raw d*.smd file with f-prot and it will detect the virus, but run 
it through Declude Virus, and the virus goes though undetected. After 
pestering and prodding for several days, I finally gave up on getting a response 
that made sense. But it must have something to do with the way Declude 
Virus is stripping off the mime encapsulation before calling f-prot to scan the 
message.

I have copied this to the Declude Virus list, as 
well, since it really belongs there rather than on the IMail list.

Scan timeouts were not the issue either, since my

I caught that in the later thread.  On my system I see the same behavior 
where the gsc/gse will get processed by the next queue run as well.  I do 
seem to remember in older versions that they were tried to be delivered 
right away.

As I mentioned in another post, it appears that the Postmaster

a GSE or GSC extension instead of SMD ... and are eventually processed
within 20 or 30 minutes, I'm assuming being caught by the queue being

Re: [Declude.Virus] Declude using CBL to block users sending mail?????

2005-06-13 Thread Bill Landry


- Original Message - 
From: Matt



So it would be possibly useful in this case, but again, solving the
issue that created the CBL listing is the most direct route, and less
dependencyon any particular test by adding something like Sniffer
and reducing weights on such things I think is still the best overall
solution.


Not to mention that anything done to reduce the weight of messages into you 
own system does nothing to control how others may be using CBL to weight or 
block spam coming into their systems.  So as Matt said, the best thing to do 
is correct whatever issue got you listed in the first place, and then focus 
your efforts on getting the listing removed.

This update is the worst method IMO  (The one referenced in the link 
here).
I used to update every hour and using this I would find the machine with 
the
updater hung on the screen timed out at least once a week.

W2K Server SP4.  What OS are you using it on where it does NOT create
issues?
I started writing a simple updater using 4NT copy /u which copies across
anonymous ftp and http links and only copies new files.  Perfect but then 
I
read somewhere that fprot has no FTP updates available anymore so I 
rewrote
the one for Mcafee command line instead since I do not have the full 
version
installed on this machine and do not want to install the full version.

The script pulls the superdat expands it and then the daily dat.
I could not get the wget Mcafee script from the Declude links to work for
long either.  Wget got corrupted after 2 days saying it was not a valid
win32 application.  Those links on the Declude site should be removed as
that stuff does not work anymore.
4NT from Jpsoft is simply the best tool for the job anyway.  That and 
unzip
from infozip and it is done.

F-Prot may have pulled the latest defs do to the number of complaints

 I also filled out the form at FProt's site.  Thanks for the defs.  When
 I open up FProt, though, it says that my defs are up-to-date, even
 though I replaced the newest ones with the ones that you sent.  I hope
 that that message indicates whether we've downloaded the latest - not

I'd like to help you out with this Matt, but with only one antivirus

This is a possible clue:

Your virus.cfg needs a different setup parameter or report.txt cannot

 I've never seen this before, but beginning on Saturday morning, I
 started getting appearances of Application Error in my Event Log about
 McAfee:


 Faulting application Scan.exe, version 4.3.2.0, faulting module
 mcscan32.dll, version 4.3.2.0, fault address 0x0001cfd0.


 Then this morning the POP3 service started also giving errors in
 addition to McAfee:


 Faulting application POP3d32.exe, version 12.11.9.8, faulting module
 POP3d32.exe, version 12.11.9.8, fault address 0x00010bcb.


 The POP3 service had in fact crashed and it needed to be restarted (I
 rebooted just to be safe).  I believe that this is the first time that I
 have ever seen the POP3 service crash.  Although I don't believe that
 POP3 has anything direct relationship to McAfee on my server since that
 app is only used as a command line scanner, I'm quite suspicious of this
 causing the issue.

 Has anyone else seen either one of these errors on their systems?

 Thanks,

Since I'm interested in the manual installation, I'll install it on the

Which is the same as I've done the last few times.  If you're going to

 I wanted to let

add an option to the install (and all future installs) to be able to do a 
’manual install’ where it will prompt you for a folder where the install will 
just copy the files into that folder and exit. Then you will be able to do the 
upgrades you are used to. We are trying to make installs and upgrades easier for 
users but I realize that some customers do like the hand on approach. I will try 
to accommodate everyone.

Re: Re[6]: [Declude.Virus] testvirus.org #22

2004-12-20 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: R. Scott Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 This is exactly why Scott and I had that whole e-mail exchange a few
weeks
 ago.  I have found a few viruses now that are not caught when decoded by
 Declude but when the D*.SMD files is scanned manually at the command line
by
 the same scanners with the same switches used in the virus.cfg file, the
 virus will be detected.  I thought this was an issue, but Scott thought
 otherwise...

 And there's a good reason why I thought it was not an issue (assuming
 you're referring to the HTML_BOFRA thread).

 In that thread, I believe there were two issues:

 [1] Phishing E-mails were sometimes not getting caught.  This is beyond
the
 scope of Declude Virus, as those are spam, not viruses.  However, if your
 AV program can detect phishing E-mails, you can easily get it to work with
 Declude Virus by making sure not to use the PRESCAN ON option in Declude
 Virus.

I had PRESCAN OFF in my virus.cfg.  Not caught when scanned via Declude -
caught when the raw D*.SMD file was manually scanned via the command prompt
using the same switches that were in the virus.cfg file.

 [2] Spam with links to viruses were not getting caught.  Again, this is
 technically beyond the scope of Declude Virus, as no viruses are passing
 through the mailserver.  The reason for this is that Declude Virus does
not
 send the headers of the E-mails to the virus scanner (as there is no need
 for it to see the headers in order to determine if a virus is
 present).  Again, this is an issue of an AV program doing more than what
AV
 programs traditionally do.

Same as above.

 So there is still no indication that a virus can get through a mailserver
 protected by Declude Virus.

Maybe/maybe not - see William Stillwell's earlier message.

 Ditto.  I thought Declude called the scanner(s) on the d*.smd,
 plus extracted all the segments out and scanned those too.  Is
 that incorrect?

This is actually what I was requesting that Scott have Declude do (same as
what amavisd-new recently enabled mail admins to do), set a switch to enable
scanning of the decoded parts as well as the message in it's entirety, if
desired.  However, there would be a trade-off here in that scanning would
take a bit longer to complete, but it would be up to each individual mail
admin to decide whether to enable the switch or not.

 So Declude doesn't actually Send the SMD file to the Scanner..

 Correct.

 It takes the Message Body, wirtes it to a Tmp File, and then scans it?
 Why not just scan the SMD file , Headers and All ?

 Because very few AV programs can read a .SMD file.  They make their big
 bucks by selling mailserver virus scanners ($1,000s), as opposed to
desktop
 scanners ($10s), so they don't want the deskstop scanners to scan .SMD
files.

Many, if not most, desktop command-line scanners today have support for
mail/mime encoded files:
===
F-Prot: -server  Turns on heuristics that are suitable when scanning mail
messages on a mail server.

McAfee: --mime  Option tells the VirusScan Command Line application to
detect infections within archives converted to UUEncode, XXEncode, Base64,
and BinHex formats.

ClamAV: ScanMail  Enable internal e-mail scanner (Default: enabled)

BitDefender: --mail  Scan mail databases

 Correct.I have no interest in this case of an indv virus count. Just
 totals. That is what I want to feed to mrtg to get realtine graphs.
 As you probably are aware mrtg likes 2 values to graph so in this
 case I'm looking for total scanned vs virus found. [For total virus's
 I think it would have to be by individual scanner so could see how
 each AV program compares. An overall total would be helpful as well
 if possible.]

Well, here is a bit a trickery to make it a single liner:

egrep File\(|Scanned: (Virus|Error)|Skipping l:\virus\vir1201.log | gawk
{print $1,$4,$5,$6} | sed s/\/2004 / TOTAL\n/g | egrep File|TOTAL |
gawk {print $(NF-0)} | usort | uniq -c

Which will give you an output like:

   735 INFECTED
  37023 TOTAL

You will need to adjust the path info to you log files, and can manipulate
the output to your liking, but this should give you a starting point to work
with...

 Hmmm, I thought that since Declude Virus does the decoding and scanner

 Yes.  That's why I tested it, and found that Declude Virus is decoding the
 attachments properly, and found a very plausible explanation as to why
 ClamAV isn't catching these.

 Might you consider such an option with Declude Virus?

 The problem is that it would be quite a bit of extra work to add such a
 feature, and there isn't any indication that it would improve AV detection
 in any way.  Phishing attacks are bad, but beyond the scope of AV
software,
 especially when it comes to a workaround to deal with a bug in a
 third-party program.

Okay, enough said.  Thanks, Scott, for taking the time to indulge me on this
one.

With some phishing filter work that Kami sent me off-list, I was able to put
together a single phishing filter that is sending these uncaught phishing
e-mails over my delete weight, so that will work for us.

 Nope, in my testing of three command-line scanners, the attached
test.txt
 file contains the minimum needed to detect the file as containing a virus
 (copied your virustrap address, as well, in case this gets blocked to the
 list).

 It certainly does.

 The question is whether the AV program is expecting the headers.

There were no message headers included in the test.txt file I sent, and
three virus scanners still detected it as a virus.

 If there is not a fix coming for this, would you consider sending the
entire
 message file to the scanner?

 There isn't any known bug here.  This would be considered a very low
 priority, as it does not affect AV scanning, except that we need to be
sure
 that there isn't a problem where actual viruses would not be properly
detected.

Maybe an unknown bug then?  ;-)  If TrendMicro can detect the virus when
scanning the raw D*.SMD file, but not when spawned by Declude Virus, does
that not point to a possible issue?

 The test.txt file you sent does *not* match the actual HTML of the
original
 E-mail.  The CR/LFs were off, and there was a part at the end that was
 missing.  And, the length of the HTML segment that was decoded (per the
log
 files) doesn't match the length of the HTML segment in the E-mail you
sent.

I viewed the source of the message in Outlook Express, and then kept triming
parts of the source file (from the top and bottom) until I found the minimum
part of the resulting message needed for all three scanners to still detect
the file as a virus when manually scanned from the command-line.

I suppose I could do the same thing with the raw D*.SMD file, it you think
that would prove something other than what I have already shown.

 After further analysis, it seems that the problem is with the AV
 software.  Specifically, the E-mail you sent was using quoted-printable
 encoding, yet the body of the E-mail wasn't encoded using quoted-printable
 encoding.  So when it had a line:

   alink=#99

 Declude Virus decoded it to something like:

   alink#99

 The AV software was probably looking for the way that you (incorrectly)
 decoded it.

Again, all I did was view the source of the message as it appeared in
Outlook Express.  And all I was attempting to show what that the message
headers were not necessary for the file to be detected as a virus.

If the virus scanner were at fault (because of a decoding issue) then I have
to ask again, why can TrendMicro detect the virus when scanning the raw
D*.SMD file, but not when sent to it by Declude Virus?

Re: [Declude.Virus] HTML_BOFRA.B not getting caught by Declude Virus

- Original Message - 
From: Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 I believe that Declude creates a directory for all attachments in each
 message, and then Declude calls the scanner to scan the entire
 directory.  I believe that for inline content such as text/plain and
 text/html, these files will be saved in those directories according to
 the MIME boundaries.  For you to properly replicate the circumstances,
 it would be a good idea to save an HTML file (example.html) with the
 body content of this message in a directory with nothing else in it, and
 then call trend to scan the directory and not specifically the file.

Matt, that's a good idea.  Can you tell me if I have the correct html
segments in the test.txt file I sent?  If I simply change the extension of
this file to .html and place it in a directory by itself and then scan the
directory, would that be an adequate test?

 One possibility here is that TrendMicro doesn't detect this as a virus
 when it is called to scan the directory like Declude does, and the above
 should expose whether or not this is the case.

Yep, I'll try it and report back the results.

 Another alternative is that the message is malformed or Declude has a
 parsing issue that is preventing it from being successfully scanned.
 That would be difficult to prove unless your Debug log has more
 information such as the file names created and the sizes of each file,
 and this exposed a flaw.

Don't have that kind of detail in the debug logs, that why I offered to send
Scott the raw QD files for analysis.

 You would have to ask them.  Declude Virus is decoding the E-mail
properly.

Hmmm, I thought that since Declude Virus does the decoding and scanner
calls, that you might be interested it testing this yourself...

 My guess is that they are *not* doing any decoding (which would make
sense,
 as that is the responsibility of the mailserver AV program).  Therefore,
 because the spam is malformed (saying that it is encoded, when it is
 actually not), they are seeing what the spammer intended to be seen (the
 actual spam).  However, when decoding is done, they see a malformed
E-mail.

I had reported the same kind of issue with amavisd-new (which does much the
same as Declude) almost a year ago (see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=6775949), and Mark
Martinec (the developer) eventually decided to provide a configuration
option that allows mail admins the ability to send not only the decoded
message segments to the scanners, but also the raw message, as well (see
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=7146161).

Here is the most recent config option in amavisd-new:

@keep_decoded_original_maps = (new_RE(
  qr'^MAIL$',   # retain full original message for virus checking (can be
slow)
  qr'^MAIL-UNDECIPHERABLE$',  # retain full mail if it contains
undecipherables
  qr'^(ASCII(?! cpio)|text|uuencoded|xxencoded|binhex)'i,
  qr'^Zip archive data',
));

Might you consider such an option with Declude Virus?

 Scott, attached is the raw source of this BOFRA.B message, it looks like
 HTML to me.  In fact, when I scan the D*.SMD file from the command-line,
 TrendMicro identifies the file as HTML_BOFRA.B and ClamAV as
 HTML.Mydoom.email-gen-1.

 What does the Declude Virus log file show for this E-mail?

 Declude Virus definitely should have sent the HTML segment to the virus
 scanner (except if PRESCAN ON is being used).

Oh, and we have PRESCAN OFF in our virus.cfg.  Here is a sampling of other
HTML messages that Declude Virus is tagging:

Declude AntiVirus caught HTML_MYDOOM.AH
Declude AntiVirus caught HTML/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Declude AntiVirus caught HTML/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Declude AntiVirus caught HTML_SUNFRAUD.B
Declude AntiVirus caught HTML_BOFRA.B

Note that even BOFRA is caught sometimes, but mostly it's not.  Again, I can
send you QD files for these caught and uncaught BOFRA messages, if that
would help any.

 I will try that.

 Yes, I checked to make sure.

 I also looked at the supported options for fpcmd.exe

 The following are not supported:

 /nomem
 /noboot
 /nofloppy

 Are these soemthing that you have indluced within Declude?

We know that the /nofloppy switch is not supported with fpcmd.  And it
appears that the /nomem switch is irrelevant as memory is not scanned
whether the switch is used or not (but does not complain if used).  However,
the /noboot switch is still supported and needed in order to not scan the
boot sectors with each message scanned.  Here is the proof:

With /noboot switch:
==
Search: message.zip
Action: Report only
Files: Attempt to identify files
Switches: /ARCHIVE /PACKED /SERVER /REPORT=report.txt /NOBREAK /SILENT
/NOBOOT /NOMEM /AI /PARANOID /SAFEREMOVE
Memory was not scanned.
Hard disk boot sectors were not scanned.

Without /noboot switch:
==
Search: message.zip
Action: Report only
Files: Attempt to identify files
Switches: /ARCHIVE /PACKED /SERVER /REPORT=report.txt /NOBREAK /SILENT /AI
/PARANOID /SAFEREMOVE
Memory was not scanned.
No viruses were found in MBRs or hard disk boot sectors.

Notice the last line of each scan report.  If you do not use the /noboot
switch, the boot sectors will be scanned with each message that is scanned -
probably not what you want.  In both cases, with and without the /nomem
switch, it says the Memory was not scanned.  However, it does not complain
that the switch is used, so I would continue to use it.

 I recently added BitDefender Free Edition v7.2 as a second scanner.  This
is
 for testing purposes in anticipation of purchasing a more suitable Server

 setup, but couldn't find any.  Since I spent a little time developing the

they
 ever wanted to use this inexpensive antivirus solution.

Hmmm, see:
http://www.mail-archive.com/declude.virus@declude.com/msg09896.html

 In VIRUS.CFG the following appears to work well (assuming default
 installation directories):

 SCANFILE2 C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\Softwin\BITDEF~1\BDC.Exe /Log=report.txt
 /NoClean /Noc /All /Files
 VIRUSCODE2 1
 REPORT2 Infected:

I think you are missing some important switches (/a /r /i /W /alev=5
/flev=3), and you don't need /Files with /All, since the /Files switch is
for selecting specific types of files to scan.

 Hope this helps somebody save a little time.  Maybe Computerized Horizons
 could add these settings to their list of scanners?

Don't know why they haven't added it yet, as you can see I reported a

2004-11-11 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: Alan Walters [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 As to your comments about my config having extraneous settings (/Files),
 I'll agree - but for a different reason.  The /Files is used to specify
the
 PATH, not the type of files to scan.  After reviewing
 http://www.bitdefender.com/support/files/bdc.chm I've concluded that
/Files
 is already set by default and thus unnecessary.

Whatever, like I said, it's unnecassary.

 As far as missing some important settings, I'll disagree completely.  The
 above link shows that /r is to specifically scan Archives, the /i is to
 specifically scan Mail (whatever that means).  I believe since I'm using
 /All that /r and /i would be redundant.  I'm not sure why you would want
to
 suppress warnings with /W?  I took that to mean suspicious files, which I
do
 want to be warned about.  The /alev= and /flev= default to infinity so
 shouldn't need to be specified at all.

Take a look at all of the other virus configs in the manual, all have the
flag set to scan archives.  If you don't set this flag (/r), then
BitDefender will not unarchive the file before attempting to scan.

The /w flag is enable because it does not hurt anything to have it set and
will be able to scan inside MIME, UUE, XXE and BinHex files, if they are
possibly not decoded properly by Declude.

The /W switch prevents console or other NetBIOS warning from poping up, and
has absolutly nothing to do with the information that Declude uses in the
report file.

The /alev= /flev= settings and you will be setting yourself up for zip bombs
(search on Zip of Death), that is, files that are zipped hundred or
thousands of times, eating up all of your systems resources while trying to
unarchive the file.  See:

http://www.aerasec.de/security/advisories/decompression-bomb-vulnerability.html

Again, take a look at the manual and you will see that all of the other
virus scanners that support notification suppression, archive scanning, mail
file scanning, and archive depth scanning controls, they are used.  But it's
you system, and if you want to blindly compromies it instead of learning
from someone that has been doing this for a long time, that's your
progative.

 Greg,

 Plain text E-mail will not link in Outlook unless it appears as a URL
 that begins with www, and that means that it is very unlikely that a
 successful exploit could be constructed in plain text as the infected
 computers won't have A records pointing at them that begin with www.

 As far as links go of this variety, they would need to be embedded in
 text/html segments, and they would almost definitely come by way of a
 linked IP instead of using the FQDN of the exploited machine since many
 reverse DNS entries won't resolve to A records, and many computers don't
 have reverse DNS entries (primarily in other areas of the world).  It is
 unfortunately possible that someone might get creative and use some
 reverse DNS entries, but that would be unnecessary if they are
 successful at this form of exploit by using just an IP.  It seems like
 it would therefore be safe and prudent to simply expand PRESCAN to
 include messages that are linked with IP's, regardless of also having a
 port since that isn't necessary.  This would only add a modicum of
 overhead related to the additional messages that might be sent to the
 virus scanner, and it would enable many of the phish attempts to be
 scanned as well without needing to scan everything since most phishing
 attempts make use of IP's in links these days (domains are generally
 quickly killed when used for phishing, but the IP will live as long as
 the host allows it).

 This is actually the second virus to have tried linking to the exploit
 that I am aware of.  The first one was a Bagel variant if I recall
 correctly, but it used a known universe of about 500 hosts that were 99%
 removed by the various ISP's within 12 hours of the virus being
 detected, so this method was ineffective.  It also was making use of an
 exploit that had been patched for almost a year, so it went nowhere.

 This virus was easy for me to block, though I might cause some false
 positives on discussions of the virus.  If it came as an IP link, but
 without the fixed ports, I would have had to spend a lot more time
 coding something up to protect from this based on content, and as things
 stand, this will probably have to remain on my system for more than a
 year, and with other variants likely to come still.  My second scanner
 is McAfee though, and turning PRESCAN OFF might soon become my only
 realistic choice.  I'm going to guess that this might remove more than
 25% of my system's capacity however, and that gets costly.

Wow, that is quite a jump in processor 
utilization. I also run two scanners (TrendMicro  F-Prot), but I 
might not have noticed as much of an increase because I am running on 
dual-processor systems. When I get a minute I will throw up a monitor and

Subject: [Declude.Virus] F-Prot Updater timing out?


 I'm running Declude 1.81 with F-Prot.  It's on my NT 4.0 mail server,
which
 is one of five servers we have, running on a Hawking Technology
 KVM.  Screen saver set to go on after 5 minutes, but no hibernation or
 standby.  I have F-Prot set to look for updates hourly...and lately I'll
 check the mail server and find this:
 ---
 Updater - An Error Occurred
 Failed to retrieve information about available updates.
 System Error - the operation timed out.

 Please check if your internet connection is working and try again.
 ---
 This seems to happen when the KVM is set to another server (shouldn't even
 affect it at all) and the mail server goes without human contact for a
 while.  If I'm sitting at the mail server doing work, I'll see the updater
 popup on the screen and do its thing.  This concerns me.  Sometimes I'll
 check the server and see that message, then manually go in and check for
 F-Prot updates, and there will be some available for download.  What if I
 was out for the week?  Who knows what would get through in that amount of
 time...

 Any ideas as to what this could be?  There are no f-prot errors in the
 Event Viewer, and no connection lapses

Disable the F-Prot updater and use one of the command line update scripts
that can be found on the Declude site.  Then you can schedule the updates
with the Task Scheduler and not have to keep the server logged on all of the
time.  We have no problem get our updates this way.

 What is the suggested configuration for this option?
 PRESCAN   ON or OFF  ?

 Comments...? thanks

I have prescan on and, if you are running Virus Pro, I don't know why you
wouldn't want to enable it.  This from the Virus manual:
==
Declude Virus Pro has the option for pre-scanning E-mail, which can
significantly improve performance.

Since the majority of E-mails are really plaintext with a cute HTML
version of the E-mail attached (that is usually identical to the plain text
version), a lot of scanning may be done that isn't necessary. Plain HTML
files (without any scripts or other potentially dangerous code) are safe.

The pre-scanning in Declude Virus Pro will check HTML segments to see if
there is any potentially dangerous code (JavaScript, Active-X, plugins,
etc.). If so, it will send them to the virus scanner as they usually would
be. Otherwise, it will let them pass through unscanned, which will improve
performance.

To turn on pre-scanning, you can change the PRESCAN OFF line in the
\IMail\Declude\virus.cfg file to PRESCAN ON.

 I just want to interject that I'm seeing this behavior a bunch

 because I have some remote users that connect to it to send email.

I see this with Zafi as well.  This from another list regarding Zafi:
=
This Hungarian originated virus initiates a Dictionary attack on domain
names that if finds on the infected machine. It does not use DNS to find the
MX records, but instead guesses the host name (such as 'mail' or 'mx'),
prepends it to the domain name, and then proceeds with it's dirty work using
Hungarian sounding names.

Thus this particular virus will bypass gateway machines and send directly to
the hostname A record, which is typically pointed to the IMail server so
that customers can reach the IMail server via their e-mail clients.  That's
one of the reasons why we do virus scanning on our gateway machines and our
IMail servers.

Re: [Declude.Virus] F-prot missing viruses

2004-06-15 Thread Bill Landry

From: R. Scott Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED]

   Another one is BitDefender.  Their free scanner has just the right
features
   for Declude Virus.
 
 It doesn't appear to be free for commercial use.

 I was sure that it allowed commercial use (or rather commercial use was
not
 prohibited), but after going to http://www.bitdefender.com/ (and finding
 that that URL is oddly no longer valid) and hunting, I found
 http://www.bitdefender.com/bd/site/presscenter.php?menu_id=25n_id=91
which
 says that 5 days ago they stopped offering the free DOS version.  Even
 odder is that they are replacing the DOS version with a Linux version (is
 that a typo?).  They do have a free Windows version, but I haven't checked
 the licensing of that, or to see if it includes a command line scanner.

After looking into this a bit more, I did find the follow text at their
press center
(http://www.bitdefender.com/bd/site/presscenter.php?menu_id=25n_id=91):

We will continue to provide antivirus freeware, as long as there is a
public need for such. We believe quality antivirus should be available to
one and all, as this is the only way we know of to alleviate the virus
menace and reduce the impact of future virus incidents on the network at
large. declared Mircea Mitu, BitDefender Business Line Manager.

So maybe it is free to be used in a commercial environment, as well as for
home use.

Re: [Declude.Virus] f-prot /packed meaning

2004-06-08 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: Bob McGregor [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 what does the /packed parameter on the scanfile line in the config file
do?
 Is it a switch that I want on? It's not mentioned in the manual for
declude virus.

Bob, you don't mention which virus scanner you're using, but I'm going to
assume that it's F-Prot.  Here is a description of the different switches
that fpcmd supports:

Usage: f-prot [drive, file or directory] [options]

-ai Enable neural-network virus detection.
-append Append to existing report file.
-archiveScan inside .ZIP and .ARJ files.
-auto   Automatic virus removal.
-collectScan a virus collection.
-delete Delete infected files.
-disinf Disinfect whenever possible.
-dumb   Do a dumb scan of all files.
-extScan only files with default extensions.
-follow Follow symbolic links.
-help   Display this list.
-list   List all files checked.
-nobreakDo not abort scan if ESC is pressed.
-noheur Disable heuristics.
-nosub  Do not scan subdirectories.
-oldDo not complain when using outdated DEF files.
-onlyheur   Only use heuristics, not normal scanning.
-packed Unpack compressed executables.
-page   Pause after each page.
-rename Rename infected COM/EXE files to VOM/VXE.

Press ENTER to continue to view the command-line options.

-report=Send the output to a file.
-server Activate mail filter heuristics.
-silent Do not generate any screen output.
-type   Select files by type. (default)
-verno  Show version information.
-virlistList the known viruses.
-virno  Count the known viruses.
-wrap   Wrap text so the report fits in 78 columns.

Special macro virus options:

-nomacroDo not scan for macro viruses.
-onlymacro  Only scan for macro viruses.
-removeall  Remove all macros from all documents.
-removenew  Remove new variants of macro viruses by removing all macros
from infected documents.
-saferemove Remove all macros from documents, if a known virus is found.

I have used the packed switch with F-Prot for about a year now.  Don't
know if it has helped any, but it certainly has not hurt anything.

Re: Possible Spam: [Declude.Virus] OT - Need IP from MAC address

2004-05-23 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: Jeff Pereira [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Thanks for the reply, but I think you misunderstood

 I know the IP of my computer, I don't know the IP of a piece of equipment
 that I have, but I do know what the MAC address is.

Ping the broadcast address for the address space the device is on, then type
arp -a from the command prompt of the computer you did the broadcast ping
from.  That should show you the IP addresses for all devices on that logical
subnet with their associated mac addresses.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Scott, what do you use to generate this report

2004-04-14 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: Bill [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 The very last line shows the total message count including messages that
 did not fail any tests.  My program, as it is now, does not look at any
 of the declude actions, just the tests failed.  I primarily use it is to
 determine if any of the tests that I am using have quit working or how
 effective a new test or filter file is.

 Why don't you send me a .txt file of what you think that the output
 should be and I will consider it.

Rather than total message counts, I was just looking for a total count of
messages that immediately got delivered, not including messages that were
held or deleted.  It not a big deal, I simply added a line to my config
files that adds a log entry for messages that get delivered:

Global.cfg:
WEIGHT-OK  weightrange  x   x   -50  15

$default$.junkmail:
WEIGHT-OK   LOG

This accomplishes the same thing, and give me an output (sample) like the
following:

 WEIGHT-OK  1685  21  1967  20
   WEIGHT-HOLD  189  2  204  2
 WEIGHT-DELETE  5663  73  7030  74
 Message Count  7752   9436

But thanks for considering my request.

Regards,

Bill

Re: [Declude.Virus] New interim release to ban extensions in .ZIP files

2004-03-02 Thread Bill Landry
I am trying to understand this, but the reality doesn't work like I think
you are saying it should.  If I have the following in my virus.cfg file:

BANEXT   EZIP

with or without:

BANZIPEXTS  ON
BANEZIPEXTS  ON

I catch the encrypted/password protected virus files.  However, if I use
just:

BANZIPEXTS  ON
BANEZIPEXTS  ON

the virus files pass right through declude, reporting that the file is virus
free.  Am I simply not understanding how this is supposed to work.  I though
we no longer needed to use BANEXT EZIP.  Please enlighten me on the error of
my ways...  :-)

 Do these new features, BANZIPEXTS and BANEZIPEXTS, stop both zip files

 Yes (using BANEXT ZIP would block all .ZIP files will be banned,
 regardless of what file extensions they may contain).

 Just wondering if using the above forces us to block Zip files or not.
We
 do not
 want to block Zip files, but like the idea of blocking them if they
contain
 an extension that we do want to block.

 The BANZIPEXTS/BANEZIPEXTS options will allow you to allow normal .ZIP
 files, while blocking .ZIP files that contain certain extensions.

Re: [Declude.Virus] New interim release to ban extensions in .ZIP files

2004-03-02 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: R. Scott Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 The new format will ban the same extensions that you are already banning,
 but will do so in .ZIP files.  The BANZIPEXTS  ON option will ban the
files
 if they are un-encrypted, the BANEZIPEXTS  ON will ban the files if they
 are encrypted.

Okay, so if I want to continue to ban any zip file that is encrypted,
whether I have defined the extension to be band or not, I should continue to
use BANEXT EZIP, correct?

 Just set up a gateway mailserver, and I realized that if a virus comes

 mailservers IP address.  Is there a way to hook the IPBypass functionality

in the spool directory. It was my day off so I didn't notice until
later and then there was 1500+ emails in the spool directory and
going nowhere. I run 1.77.

I put the smtp32.exe back in service and all messages was sent but
without virus and junkmail scanning of course. Then i put declude
back in service and all stopped and those messages kept piling up
in the spool directory again.

The funny thing is virus and junkmail logs stop at 10:55 and adds
nothing for the rest of the day. I guess I have to put smtp32 back
in service though I don't like it with the newsky activity...

If it's:

maybe try instead

without a colon ":". Just curious if that

  Ok, I've been testing things and I think I might have found why 
  Declude can't make use of AVG 7's 32-bit scanner, avgscan.exe. In the 
  16-bit version, the program will report:

  extra space: Virus identified 
  EICAR_TestAside from that difference, I can't find anything else 
  that would explain it not working. BTW, I did find that they support the 
  /NOBOOT switch with avgscan.exe despite the lack of this appearing in the help

   Would it be possible to E-mail one of the quarantined D*.SMD files to

a
   better idea of why this is happening.
 
 I sent sample d*.smd virus files and postmaster and log file txt to the

 It looks like Groupshield blocked it.

 Perhaps you could .ZIP it in a password-protected .ZIP file, which should
 prevent it from getting blocked?

 This is indeed due to an issue with Declude Virus -- it will be fixed in
 the next interim release.

Scott, I upgraded to Declude v1.77i26 and that took care of the file name
issue - thanks!  However, I am now noticing that about 1 in 10 postmaster
messages is displaying virus in Unknown File, even though most times the
file name is correctly identified in the virus log (see attachment).

Not that big a deal, just an FYI...

Re: [Declude.Virus] Virus report and log entry question

2004-01-29 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: R. Scott Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Scott, I am running Declude v1.77i24 and I am wondering why Declude Virus
is
 using the file name from the second virus scanner instead of the first...

 This should only happen if the first virus scanner did not report the
virus
 name, or if the virus name contains vulnerability in it (in which case a
 real virus name takes priority).

F-Prot is the first virus and the log samples I provided show the F-Prot did
report the virus name.  In fact, the log and postmaster report both use the
first scanners reported virus name (in this case F-Prot reported the virus
as Mydoom) instead of the second scanner (TrendMicro, which reports the
virus as WORM_MIMAIL.R).  However, the report and log file show the seconds
scanners file name, which is showing up missing the first letter in the file
name in both, which is not missing in either as reported by the first
scanner.

 The problem here is that the report file format is different for a .SMD
 file that is scanned versus an actual attachment (Declude Virus decodes
the
 attachments).  Could you send a sample file for scanning a directory with
 just a single eicar.com file in it?

Here you go:

C:\Program Files\Trend\SPROTECTvscantm.bin /NBPM /NM /NB /NC /Q

Re: [Declude.Virus] TrendMicro Declude Virus

2004-01-27 Thread Bill Landry
- Original Message - 
From: R. Scott Perry [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 I was looking at the virus manual site and noticed that the TrendMicro
 config entry does not have a report line.  Is this because Trend does
not
 provide a report output the Declude can track?  Just wondering because we
 are migrating all of our data center server to Trend.

 That is correct -- the last time we checked, they did not support the
 standard report file format.

We are running a corporate enterprise edition of TrendMicro, but this is
providing accurate report output for us:

SCANFILE2 C:\Progra~1\Trend\Sprotect\vscantm.bin /NBPM /NM /NB /NC /Q
/LR=report.txt
VIRUSCODE2 1
REPORT2  Found

I don't know if this would work for the basic desktop version or not, since
I do not have a copy to be able to test it.

How do you know if spyware is on a PC?  Does Declude or Imail identify
and remove sneakly applications such as these?

That is up to the AV program.  Most AV programs do not attempt to detect

spyware.  However, if the AV program you use with Declude Virus is
capable
of detecting spyware, then it will get caught with Declude Virus.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Heads up on F-Prot configuration

2004-01-25 Thread Bill Landry
Here's what I have used for over a year and recommended to the list at that
time:

# F-Prot
SCANFILE1
C:\Progra~1\FSI\F-Prot\fpcmd.exe -AI -ARCHIVE -DUMB -NOBOOT -NOBREAK -NOMEM 
-PACKED -SILENT -TYPE -REPORT=report.txt
VIRUSCODE1 3
VIRUSCODE1 6
VIRUSCODE1 8
REPORT1  Infection:

I include the VIRUSCODE 8 for holding suspicious files, and -AI to
enable neural-network virus detection.  I'm not sure why Scott did not add
at least the -PACKED switch back then, figured maybe he though I was just
being overly cautious.

Also, I use hyphen - instead of forward slash / because that's what is
shown for the switches when doing fpcmd /? from the command prompt.
Probably doesn't matter since both apparently work.

  I noticed while testing the command line output that the switches

  to unpack compressed executables.   I'm no expert on this stuff,
  but I believe the 32-bit F-Prot instructions should be changed to the
  following:
 
 
  Actually, the original configuration that we suggested for fpcmd.exe
  was identical to F-Prot.exe, except without the /NOFLOPPY option
  (which would break fpcmd.exe), so we kept the /NOBOOT in there.
  But, someone later pointed out that fpcmd.exe doesn't support the
  /NOBOOT switch.  I'm not sure whether they just left it out of the
  list of switches, or if it is left undocumented.  But that's why we
  removed it.  I'll have to check to see if they have changed this since
  we last checked.

 The Help shows the commands beginning with
 dashes.   FPCMD.EXE recognizes the dashes as commands, however it fails to
 remove them from the argument list and ends up scanning for the arguments
as
 additional file specifications.   Try it both ways and note the output -
it
 says it searches for -packed, for example.

Also a test shows that the /NOBOOT command is applicable to FPCMD.exe
and
 saves scanning the boot records.

  Also, I use hyphen - instead of forward slash / because that's what
is
  shown for the switches when doing fpcmd /? from the command prompt.
  Probably doesn't matter since both apparently work.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Zip vulnerability

I think it depends on your virus scanner, but I believe that most virus
scanners will now detect the zip of death.

Subject: [Declude.Virus] Zip vulnerability


 Does Declude recognize the zip vulnerability where a zip file contains 5
 other zip files each of which contain a further 5 zip files which ALL
 contain 400MB files? So about 10GB of zipped files that zips down to
5kb

 I really don't want to test it on my live server but I have such a
file.

 Craig.
