[clamav-users] freshclam can't download updates due to SSL issue

[Micah Snyder (micasnyd)]

Chris,

Is the date/time correct on your machine?  You can get this error if the time is incorrect.

Eg if I set my date back to 2012:

❯ sudo date 010417352012
[sudo] password for micasnyd:
Wed Jan  4 17:35:00 PST 2012

❯ ~/.clamav/bin/freshclam

Hello

I'm using ClamAV version 0.103.0 and recently whenever I try to update ClamAV with freshclam, for some reason it spits out this error:

WARNING: Download failed (60) WARNING:  Message: SSL peer certificate or SSH remote key was not OK
WARNING: getpatch: Can't download daily-26002.cdiff from https://database.clamav.net/daily-26002.cdiff

I Googled for some answers on this and a few of the answers said to make sure my "ca-certificates" were updated.  For the record my OS is Linux Devuan Beowulf (Debian 10) and it has the latest version of ca-certificates available (20200601).  This also includes ca-certificates-java (20190405) and ca-certificates-mono (5.18.0.240+dfsg-3).  Running "update-ca-certificates" ran successfully, but I'm still getting that above error when updating ClamAV.

This never happened before, as running freshclam always updated the definitions without any issues.  Is it something on my end I need to do or is it an issue with ClamAV?

Thanks
