hi all

i've seen a new virus in the wild (confirmed by sophos yesterday).

the W32/Bagle-J sends password secured ZIP files in the style of:


From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

if you see strange things on your sendmail like i did:
Mar  3 22:26:55 daisy sendmail[1228]: i23LQtP4001228:
from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=23864, class=0, nrcpts=1,
msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP,
daemon=MTA, relay=idefix.altrax.ch [81.94.96.66]
Mar  3 22:26:56 daisy sendmail[1228]: i23LQtP4001228: Milter: data,
reject=451 4.7.1 Please try again later
Mar  3 22:26:56 daisy sendmail[1228]: i23LQtP4001228: to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>,
delay=00:00:01, pri=53864, stat=Please try again later

and you're checking your (sendmail-)milter plugins, thats because of:

Mar  3 22:28:23 daisy amavisd[1350]: starting.  amavisd 0.1 Thu Dec  4
04:54:53 CET 2003
Mar  3 22:29:08 daisy amavisd[1417]: Decoding of msg-1417-4.zip (Zip archive
data, at least v1.0 to extract) failed, leaving it unpacked: error:
encryption unsupported
(message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)
Mar  3 22:29:09 daisy amavisd[1417]: Virus scanner failure:
/usr/local/bin/sweep (error code: 2)
Mar  3 22:29:09 daisy amavisd[1417]: All virus scanners failed - mail
requeued
(message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>)

so, the mail will stay for some days in the queue of the delivering
provider.


just FYI.

ps: does anyone knows, how to trick amavisd to pass encrypted (zip)
archives?
