Hi Ged,Yes, the definition that you can download via freshclam directly from clamav site is outdated ( from 2019).You need to use https://github.com/Cisco-Talos/clamav-safebrowsingMy way to implement this was quite simple and i've also took the advantage of freshclam.On one central system i've installed the python/mysql/(other python libraries needed) and copy the generated clamav db to a place which is accessible via http/https.Then in every clamav server i've simple added in the freshclam config: DatabaseCustomURL https://blabla.domain.tld/safebrowsing.gdbI've expected to have more hits because now-days most of these URLs are used for phishing.Sent from my Samsung Galaxy smartphone.
