Re: [Declude.Virus] F-PROT 6 vs ClamAV SOSDG
One side note - if this feature is added please make sure this feature is configurable so we can disable it if we choose (which I would). I have customers who hold all spam for a certain period of time and than we delete. If anything needs to be returned to the queue it is scanned manually or returned to the proc for reprocessing. Virus scanning on all messages held would defeat the whole purpose of AVAFTERJM for their implementation.

I don't remember what version, but it was a 1.x version. Are you familiar with the setting? It tells Declude to run Anti-Virus after Junkmail. It then only runs AV after checking to see if the message is spam. With the spam load these days, I would expect that to be the desired config, resulting in AV scanning on only about 10% of incoming mail instead of 100%.

Re: [Declude.Virus] ClamAV lstat() failed. ERROR
Gary, In order to scan the file I am sure Declude has to append the path to the files to scan otherwise how would the virus scanner know what to scan? It needs some type of path. Unless possibly it sets a working directory and expects the scanner to scan all the files in the working directory. I suspect it gets a path much like it calls an external application.

If I type in the full path for my command string, such as C:\clamav-devel\bin\clamdscan.exe --quiet -l C:\temp\report.txt C:\temp\123456789.eml it works.

Re: [Declude.Virus] virus via e-mail getting rare
All and all it has been way down for me as well. In mid 2005 I was averging around 100K-200K viruses a month (with AVAFTERJM). That has been dropping and dropping. In 2006 the highest for any give month I had was 22K. This year I have had nothing over 2,500. With running AVAFTERJM a lot of viruses also get tagged as spam. In 2003 we averaged around 400K+ viruses per month (which dropped by more than half when AVAFTERJM was enabled). Other things like greylisitng also helps twart viruses.

FWIW - I have McAfee as my last scanner and every now and than I see it grab a few viruses that the others miss. Darrell Check out http://www.invariantsystems.com for utilities for Declude And Imail.

[Declude.Virus] ClamAV, BitDefender, Symantec, Trend, Sophos
FYI - List of AV Vulns that were listed in the SANS Vulnerability Alert that affect most of us one way or another. Also, there was a McAfee vulnerability but it was for thier linux based version. 06.50.31 CVE: CVE-2006-5874 Platform: Cross Platform Title: Clam Anti-Virus MIME Attachments Denial of Service Description: Clam Anti-Virus (ClamAV) is an anti-virus application for Windows and UNIX like operating systems. It is exposed to a denial of service issue because it fails to handle certain file types. Specifically, the vulnerability exists when the application processes base64-encoded MIME attachments. This results in a NULL pointer dereference crashing the affected application. ClamAV versions prior to 0.88.4-2 are affected. Ref: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/453968 MODERATE: BitDefender PE File Parsing Engine Integer Overflow Affected: BitDefender Antivirus and Antivirus Plus BitDefender for ISA Server and MS Exchange BitDefender Internet Security BitDefender Mail Protection for Enterprises BitDefender Online Scanner Description: Multiple BitDefender products are vulnerable to an integer overflow in parsing packed PE (Portable Executable) files. Portable Executable files are the standard executable format on Microsoft Windows systems. Failure to properly handle certain malformed packed PE files can lead to an integer overflow and arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the scanning process. Status: BitDefender confirmed, updates available. According to BitDefender's website, the update was distributed immediately via BitDefender's automatic update system, and no user interaction is required to install the update. References: BitDefender Security Advisory http://www.bitdefender.com/KB323-en--cevakrnl.xmd-vulnerability.html (11) Symantec Antivirus Big Yellow/Sagevo Worm Description: eEye researchers have discovered a new worm that is exploiting a buffer overflow vulnerability in the Symantec Antivirus and Client Security software. The overflow being exploited by the Big Yellow/Sagevo worm was patched by Symantec in May 2006. Enterprises using Symantec AV or Client Security software should apply the patch immediately if they have not done so already. In addition, blocking access to the port 2967/tcp at the network perimeter will prevent any attacks originating from the Internet.

These applications are exposed to remote denial of service issues because they fail to properly handle file types, resulting in excessive consumption of system resources. Trend Micro Server Protect version 5.58, Trend Micro PC Cillin - Internet Security 2006 and Trend Micro Office Scan version 7.3 are affected. Ref: http://www.trendmicro.com/en/home/us/home.htm CRITICAL: Sophos Anti-Virus Multiple Vulnerabilities Affected: Sophos products with a scanning engine version prior to 2.40 Description: Sophos Anti-Virus contains multiple buffer overflows in parsing CPIO and SIT archives. CPIO is a common archive format used primarily on Unix and Unix-like systems, and SIT is a common archive format used primarily on Apple Macintosh systems. A specially-crafted CPIO or SIT archive scanned by Sophos could exploit these buffer overflows and execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the scanning process. Some technical details for these vulnerabilities are publicly available. Status: Sophos confirmed, updates available.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Bug in mismatched extensions causes backscatter on spam
Matt, I agree with everyone of your points - My intent was to bring it up that I had reported this issue up a long time ago as I also thought that what was happening was undesirable. However, at the time Scott did not feel this was a bug. However, times change and back scatter is a huge issue. Maybe thats enough now to convince for an alteration of behavior. As my preference would be to handle mismatched exe's as its own class of which I would not send bannotify messages for.

Backscatter can get you blacklisted, not to mention it is annoying to get such things for forged E-mail.I have Virus running after JunkMail and still I have bounced a dozen of these today alone (which excludes messages that reached my DELETE weight). For those that run JunkMail before Virus (the default), that number could be in the hundreds or thousands depending on volume since this comes from a major zombie spammer. I'm guessing that most are bouncing EXE's that aren't detected as viruses.To check this, just search your Virus log for "mismatched.exe".The behavior needs to be changed so that this doesn't trigger bannotify.eml bounces. I am testing using "SKIPIFEXT mismatched.exe" in my bannotify.eml to see if that helps, but this should not bounce such messages by default as if they were EXE's. It makes sense to give it a unique extension for these conditions and let us determine what to do with them instead of lumping it together with actions for EXE's.MattDarrell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: I brought this up to Scott several years ago - and he said this is not a bug but a by design issue.He explained a scenario why this was important and I understood based on the explantion but for the life of me I can't remember the scenario.

Because of this, I would strongly suggest that Declude assume a different extension when necessary, such as "unknown" so that we can configure Declude Virus to handle "unknown" files in a different way.

[Declude.Virus] fpReview Released - Easily Review Held Messages
fpReview is a utility that allows you to easily review held mail on your Imail or SmarterMail system. With fpReview you can review messages and return them back to the queue for delivery or rescanning by Declude. Besides being able to return the message to the queue for delivery many other options are available such as delete, move, copy, etc. Another useful feature is the ability to report false positives or spam to 3rd parties by using the integrated email function. fpReview is an intelligent application that will adapt to your workflow. It will remember email addresses and subjects to streamline future reporting of messages. In addition fpReview will import your configured Declude filters from your Declude global.cfg. This allows you to create custom Declude rules on the fly through our custom interface.

Re: [Declude.Virus] reque slips by Declude?
With older versions of Declude and Smartermail you used to have to do the X rename to skip Declude processing. If you left the X off it would be rescanned by Declude. However, now that Declude is intergrated into Smartermail v3 what is the correct requeing process? Darrell Check out http://www.invariantsystems.com for utilities for Declude And Imail.

I noticed that F-Prot still doesn't detect that version of the Feebs virus, but AVG does. So I thought I would test it. I still have a copy of the virus I received on May 9, so I requed it unchanged and unrenamed to let it got through the new Declude to see what would happen. To my surprise it was delivered! No new Declude headers were added to the message. Though SmarterMail did modify it because it detected it as spam. I checked the virus logs (LOGLEVEL set to HIGH) and there was no listing at all for this message. Naturally I am now quite nervous. Why did this happen? Have any other Feebs viruses slipped through? Unfortunately the eicar tests don't have an hta to use, so the only way I have to test this is with a live virus.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Feature request: DELETEVIRUSNAME
HOLD, DELETE, ETC - Does not get virus scanned with AVAFTERJM ROUTETO, SUBJECT, Etc - Does get virus scanned.

I am however under the impression that if you DELETE a message, Declude Virus never gets it. I suspect that HOLD and MAILBOX are also that way. I am unsure about ROUTETO, and that is what really matters to me. As far as savings of resources, it is apparently huge, especially for those running multiple virus scanners. Virus scanning takes more CPU than all but the biggest JunkMail configs (things like custom filters with thousands of lines of BODY or ANYWHERE searches).

FWIW - My issues started on December 24th at approximatly - 2:10pm EST. I will follow-up with Declude tomorrow to determine why my version decided to downgrade itself.

Key authentication has resumed as normal. There appear to be some misconceptions on the lists regarding the key authentication system. In the event that your key cannot be authenticated (either due to communication failure or because the key was never issued): A) Your software will continue to function B) Your software is NEVER downgraded for any reason, either automatically or otherwise We have had a few reports from customers who have licensed versions of Pro, saying that they are receiving messages in their log files that they do not have the Pro version. We will identify the source of that issue tomorrow when the office reopens and will resolve it. It does not have any relation to the key authentication mechanism with the server, since the actual authentication with IMail versions of Declude continues to be via the old codes entered into the configuration files.

[Declude.Virus] Sober Virus - Secret Code.
http://www.pcworld.com/news/article/0,aid,123876,00.asp Key paragraph - //begin Security firm iDefense said it broke the encrypted code in a Sober variant discovered in November and found that it is designed to download the unknown code from various Web addresses on January 5, 2006. Millions of zombie computers may already be infected with the variant, the company said. The date coincides with the 87th anniversary of the founding of the Nazi Party. The release of worms has been tied to political events in the past, iDefense noted, in a kind of hactivisim designed to distribute propaganda. //end ugh - I suspect more german pro-nazi spam...

Re: [Declude.Virus] how is Declude 3.x?
I run 3.0.5.20 DFx - I think 1 or 2. It has a few extra fixes for me the dnsbl issue is the ket one. I run it on two servers (imail) volume on server 1 - 150K and volume on server 2 - 100K.

Re: [Declude.Virus] how is Declude 3.x?
I understand what everyone is saying, beleive me I do. What I can tell you is that 3.x is much better than 2.x. Especially, since it fixes the issues I had where 100's of declude processes would unexpectantly launch and would hose the server. I have found the later versions to be very stable and fast. The big issues I am seeing with the new version is variables that were not per thread. I can tell you everyone of my issues that my twin (inside joke on the twin) or I have reported has been taken very seriously. I can tell you that David Franco-Rocha has been very aggressive working a lot of these issues. You know they are on the right track when you get builds to fix issues at 3am in the morning.. Hang in there its all starting to come together and I think when you ready to dive into 3.x you will be very happy...

[Declude.Virus] Multiple Anti-virus Vendor Detection Bypass
(4) MODERATE: Multiple Anti-virus Vendor Detection Bypass Affected: Multiple AV vendors including McAfee, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, Sophos, CA, Panda. Description: Multiple anti-virus engines reportedly contain a vulnerability that can lead to bypassing detection of malware in .bat, .html and .eml files. The problem occurs because the detection engines stop processing these files if they are tagged with a fake executable file header. Note that with the increase in client-side attacks, bypassing malicious HTML detection may lead to spread of spyware and other malware on desktop systems.

[Declude.Virus] Bitdefender Vulnerability
FYI - For those using Bitdefender - 05.40.20 CVE: Not Available Platform: Cross Platform Title: BitDefender Antivirus Logging Function Format String Vulnerability Description: BitDefender Antivirus is a proprietary antivirus product for multiple platforms. It is vulnerable to a format string issue in its logging functionality. This issue is due to a failure of the application to properly sanitize user-supplied input prior to passing it as the format specifier to a formatted printing function. A remote attacker may leverage this issue to write to arbitrary process memory, facilitating code execution and privilege escalation. BitDefender versions 7.2, 8, and 9 for Windows are reported vulnerable. Other versions and platforms may also be affected.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Declude Beta 3.0.4.4 Posted
I think it really depends on your volume if you will see this. Also, if you have already tweaked your WAITFORMAIL you may not see it as well. On my system during off peak hours I get on anverage between 75-100 messages per minute. What you will see is Declude will spawn up to 20 or so threads (I modified my threads value to keep up with volume) and process the messages. Once the decludeproc finishes processing that round of messages it will stop using any CPU time and sit idle for roughly 30 seconds. Once it sleeps for 30 seconds it will start to process messages again. See snippet of log 09/22/2005 21:38:43.703 q5c96523a026274b2.smd Successfully move [x:\IMail\spool\proc\work\q5c96523a026274b2.smd] to [x:\SPAM-HOLD\22Sep2005\q5c96523a026274b2.smd] 09/22/2005 21:39:08.968 q5c646c64029c7469.smd CFG: Set hop to 0. What occurs on my system is that the initial process completes and there is still messages in the /proc directory, but instead of grabbing more messages out of the /proc directory Declude goes to sleep. During the time it sleeps even more messages come in. Essentially what occurs is the amount of mail in the /proc folder just climbs steadily. Now I switched the WAITFORMAIL setting down to 1 second, but under those settings it appears to chew up an inordinate amount of CPU. I am still tweaking the values for a balance. The box is a Dell PowerEdge 2600 Dual Xeon with HT enabled with 4GB of RAM. Fresh install of Windows 2003 running Imail 8.15 HF 2. The box is only used for gatewaying. I guess the moral of the story is you would not really see this (if it affects you) only if the volume the box is processing is more than what the normal /work queue runs can handle. You could probably easily test this by increasing your WAITFORMAIL setting to a couple of minutes. If you are not affected by this than your system will continue to function properly and process the mail in the /proc folder as it should. If it is affected by it you would see files still in the proc folder and Declude go to sleep for that specified period of time. The key thing is that you would have to watch the proc folder since normal operation would be for the decludeproc service to go to sleep if no files existed in the folder.

Andy Schmidt writes: Hi Nick: I'm only repeating what I'm told - I don't have factual information on my own. There have been several reports on this list that describes the following problem with dual-processor systems: Declude is supposed to check the /proc folder and ONLY go to sleep (for 30 seconds), if the folder contains no messages. On systems that have that problem, Declude goes to sleep even though there ARE messages to process. The result is, that messages are queuing up and never get processed. There is a parameter to set the sleep time low (e.g. 1 second), this way, the effect of the problem is less - but now Declude does't go to sleep when it actually could - with a possible impact on resource consumption. (Of course, the question is why this appears to be related to dual-processor systems. May be one process still has an access lock against the first file in the proc folder and another process doesn't handle that error condition right - who knows.)

Re: [Declude.Virus] Declude Beta 3.0.4.4 Posted
The directives are for tuning both single and multiprocessor systems. They are not meant as a tradeoff. Some multiprocessor systems do not exhibit the reported sleep for 30 seconds behavior. We have not been able to reproduce it ourselves. I can produce it on my machine even on version 3.0.4.4. David was also provided remote access to my machine and seen this issue occur when I first reported it under the early beta. It's hard to fix something that we can't reproduce but we will keep trying. It's not even clear to me that this problem still exists in the latest version. I posted earlier (and to the [EMAIL PROTECTED]) that the problem still exists in the latest beta. Again, I can provide remote access to this machine if needed. You can mitigate the effects of this issue by adjusting the waitformail, but it seems to cause more cpu related usage. What concerns me even more than the obvious issue with multiprocessor machines is its excessive use of CPU. This is also included in my beta notes.

Changing the timings will only create a trade-off by consuming extra machine-resources. Even on a dual-processor system should the service be able to determine reliably if a folder has content or not? I'm just worried that the beta is declared successful when an entire class of machines is only working with a bandage.

In particular they to fine tune through-put with CPU utilization. 1. SLOW server that is heavily loaded You may want to try to increase WAITBETWEENTHREADS and lower THREADS. 2. FAST server Use the THREADS and WAITFORTHREADS to adjust the CPU utilization. When decludeproc first starts up it will use a lot of the CPU but after that the %CPU used by decludeproc should come way down. The %CPU of all processes running may be high depending on external tests, other processes, etc. If the system is spiking but coming down quickly that's good.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Ignoring Boundary Space Gap Vulnerability
Dan, I have been running 2.0.6 with no major issues that plague me on a daily basis. The only issue I have encountered is when the server is under high load and Declude spawns processes until the server starts generating errors. Since I upgraded the server it doesnt happen very often. For the install you can grab the package from your account on the declude site. The manual install was pretty easy - just install and select manual along with a directory. The upgrade for 2.0.6.16 the last beta is just an exe download.

Re: [Declude.Virus] MS05-16 Exploit
a mass-mailing virus. Declude defaults to BANCSLID ON which may or may not protect from such an attack. Some CSLID calls are entire valid and normal for Outlook/Office generated E-mails, and I'm not totally sure Plus the other question is does Declude look for the CSLID calls in files in zip's.

Re: [Declude.Virus] EXITSCANONVIRUS
My thoughts are this - a virus is a virus and a vulnerability is a vulnerability. My expectation is that if a virus is detected than the other scanners will not be called. However, if a vulnerability is detected the scanners will execute until such time a virus is found. Maybe two switches - EXITSCANONVULNERABILITY... However, on the grander scale of things if nothing changed on this I would still use EXITSCANONVIRUS as long as it observes the various delivery options on vulnerabilities.

In my implementation, there is no difference in message treatment if a vulnerability or virus is detected. Therefore, I am happy to stop the virus scanning if a vulnerability is detected.

Of course, I've already found that these two had too many false positives for the safety they afford, so I've turned them off: BANPARTIAL OFF BANCRVIRUSES OFF which leaves me with BANCLSID ON which has never been triggered.

It is independent of vulnerability checking. This directive merely tells Declude to break out of the external virus scanner execution loop. If you use this directive to exit the scanning loop on virus detection and (1) you have 5 scanners listed in your cfg file and (2) a virus is detected by the first scanner listed, then the effect is exactly the same in processing as if you had a single scanner listed and a virus were detected by that single scanner.

Matt, I am seeing the same thing - but my server (this one) is way more loaded than it should. Scanner 2 is F-Prot as you can see there is an excessive amount of time when this issue occurs.

Re: [Declude.Virus] Revisiting the McAfee command line arguments
improved. If a virus is found with scanner 1, I'd like an option to avoid calling later scanners. While it's good for comparison sakes, if a virus is found, I don't need 2 other programs to confirm that. I'd also like to have the PRESCAN ON/OFF setting moved within the virus scanner definitions. I could then have one of the scanners scan all of the e-mail, and the less effective scanner would run a Prescan I have to agree 100% with this. The option to bypass other scanners when a virus is found would be a great option to have. Darrell --- Check out http://www.invariantsystems.com for utilities for Declude And Imail.

Re: [Declude.Virus] OT: Installing Sophos/Anti Virus
Not that this solves the issue, but what if you installed Sophos first? Darrell invURIBL - Intelligent URI Filtering for Declude Junkmail. Blocks 85% of SPAM with the default configurations. Try it out - http://www.invariantsystems.com Aaron Moreau-Cook writes: All, I have a Imail Server on a Windows 2003 server with Declude Virus 1.82. We have been running with three virus scanners, McAfee VirusScan 7.1, F-Prot 3.16b, and Nod32. After having nothing but trouble with Nod32 crashing on our system we decided to replace Nod32 with another scanner. We tried to install PC-Cillian, but it won't install on a Windows 2003 Server. We tried to install Sophos, but it won't install because other Anti-Virus applications are installed. So my question is, how do I get another third party scanner installed? How has everyone else got Sophos installed on their systems? We'd like to use Sophos, but at this point I don't really care either way as long as it is reliable and doesn't crash.

Re: [Declude.Virus] log question
Thomas, The line you are looking for is the "Last Action" line. The line you posted means the message triggered the ipnotinmx test which normally is not used to punish messages. This message had a total weight of -5. From the information provided Declude did not toss that message. You need to now search your Imail logs and see if what happened next. If you post more log snippets it might shed some more light. Darrell ---Check out http://www.invariantsystems.com for utilities for Declude And Imail.

The problem I'm having presently is that there are a few legitimate emails that got logged in Imail and declude, but didn't get delivered properly. Here is a snip from the declude log (I think) highlighting one of the emails. 10:53:34 Q850dc49c00d6246c Tests failed [weight=-5]: IPNOTINMX=IGNORE CATCHALLMAILS=IGNORE I'm not sure exactly what I'm looking at, or if this is the cause of why the message didn't get delivered. If I'm reading this right, it seems that the message failed the listed tests and was tossed. If that's the case, did it get put into a folder I can recover it from or no?
