EPEL maintainers?
I note messages in the log about updated version 0.99.1 of CLAMAV
being available since Mar 5th.
for CentOS 6 no update is available yet.
I used to use rpmforge for this package but that languished for months
before updates became available and eventually stopped altogether.
Is there something I can do to assist in getting this package updated?
I have no idea if this is a difficult package to compile with lots of
dependancies or some otherwise complexities.
In this era of constant SPAM and so many virus / trojan attempts to do
harm to others, it is vital that we run this package to protect our
users.
Please let me know if / how I can assist.
Kind regards
Rob
Hi,
Does clamav detect anything in this floding e-mail viruses ? My clamav
instalation (with amavisd-new) in centos 5 with the current signatures
detect nothing in compare to virustotal.org antivirus - i noticed that
clamav signatures are lag behind form the top antivir in the market.
Viruses in ZIP archives goes via my e-mail gateway (amavisd-new+clamavd)
and are stopped finally by F-Secure Client Security. So, clamav is
defend from anything ?
Sorry for off topic.
That is pretty much my experience too - I've only seen the occasional
FP hit from ClamAV on a mail server for as long as I can remember.
The latest flavour of the month seems to be .js ransomware which go
undetected. I have long blocked all executable file types in amavisd
as a matter of policy.
IMHO the AV vendors lost the battle a long time ago - they simply
can't compete with the bad guys nor keep up with the volume and this
particular layer of defence is now less effective/ineffective.
Adding the Sanesecurity signatures to ClamAV greatly increases its hit
rate. It also has the advantage of blocking lots of phishing and spam
garbage in addition to the viruses and malware.

There are download scripts for both Linux and Windows available on the
Sanesecurity site to keep the signatures current.
Further discussion should probably move to the clamav-users mailing list.
