Anti Virus - Additional Signatures
Introduction
SME Server uses Clam AntiVirus (http://www.clamav.net) as the default and built-in anti virus engine.
By default this system will automatically get virus signature updates from the clamav database. Other people and organizations have developed additional signatures which can be used with ClamAV. These include
- Sane Security (http://www.sanesecurity.com/clamav/) - who maintains nine signature databases (Phishing and Scam)
- Security Info (http://www.securiteinfo.com/) - maintains four signature databases
- Malware Block List (http://www.malware.com.br/) - who maintains a database for Malware
In order to use these additional databases with your ClamAV installation you need to download them and add them to ClamAV. There is a script package from Sane Security which can be used to download and install the databases, and their addition provide 1,000's of new signatures for ClamAV to work with.
Installation
Log in to a console shell as root
Create and edit a new file. Add the following

Save the file as sanesecurity-install.sh
chmod 755 sanesecurity-install.sh
Now run the script. This will download the Sane Security package and install it for SME Server
./sanesecurity-install.sh
Run the Sane Security script for the first time to download the databases and check it works
/usr/sbin/clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh
If you want to immediately reload ClamAV to include the additional databases
signal-event clamav-update
Operation
Having installed the Sane Security package as above, it will operate as follows.
- A cron job will run every hour and instigate the clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh script
- The script will download the additional databases and add them to the /var/clamav directory
- ClamAV will reload all its databases from /var/clamav every 30 minutes by default
Signature Databases
The additional databases to be downloaded and installed by the clamav-unofficial-sigs.sh script are controlled by the configuration file /etc/clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf
A default set of databases are defined for download. There are additional databases that can also be added to the list, or some or all of the defaults can be excluded. The configuration file is commented in this regard and gives an indication of the risk of false positives from the non-default databases.
To amend the databases you require, edit /etc/clamav-unofficial-sigs.conf and add or remove the database names as instructed.
Old Installation Notes
A previous installation of the Sane Security scripts was provided for SME by swerts-knudsen.dk, and the installation notes for this are reproduced below for completeness. This is for version 2.4 of the scripts however, whereas the current version installed as above is 3.7 (April 2010)
Installation
cd /etc wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/unofficial-clamav-sigs-2.4/unofficial-clamav-sigs.conf
cd /etc/cron.hourly wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/unofficial-clamav-sigs-2.4/unofficial-clamav-sigs.cron chmod +x unofficial-clamav-sigs.cron
cd /usr/bin wget http://sme.swerts-knudsen.dk/downloads/unofficial-clamav-sigs-2.4/unofficial-clamav-sigs.sh chmod +x unofficial-clamav-sigs.sh
When you run it manually the first time it will complain about missing GPG keys - Just run it again.
./unofficial-clamav-sigs.sh
ClamAV will by default reload its databases every 1800 secs (30mins) but you can force a reload with:
signal-event email-update
