Hi Micah,

Thanks for letting me know about enabling SafeBrowsing CVD option in ClamAV.

Google safe browsing put a website in 3 categories mentioned below :

1 Secure

2 Info or Not secure

3 Not secure or Dangerous

Curious to know how ClamAV will categorize the HTML file. Let's say, if any "Note secure or Dangerous" URL is found, will ClamAV will show it as infected file in scanning summary ? If this is the case, i guess in case "Secure" URL is found, it will show as OK. And what if URL is found as "Info or Not secure" ?

Regards

Sunny

It may be worth mentioning that in addition to the [optional] SafeBrowsing CVD that you can choose to include, ClamAV has just started including PhishTank signatures late last month.

For those who curious, see https://lists.gt.net/clamav/virusdb/. PhishTank signatures are prefixed with Phishtank.Phishing.

Frankly, I'm surprised that ClamAV finds any such URL's. They are way to dynamic (blacklisted one day and removed the next). ClamAV does malware detection over the long haul and trying to keep up with fraudulent web sites would be a full time job and better done by other means (e.g. Google Safe Browsing).

Hello Team,

We are using clamav-0.100.2 to scan few HTML email templates.

Sometimes, there are deceptive URL's mentioned in those templates and that template should be detected as infected via ClamAV scan process.

I can see weird output of ClamAV scan process. Sometimes it detect such templates as infected and sometimes, it does not detect them as infected. And the URL's i am talking about, are so deceptive that even Google chrome browser don't let us open these URL's and show us clear warning as "Dangerous" about deceptive website.

Can you put your views behind such unpredictable behavior ?

If you want then i can report such URL's on your malware link for reporting.

Regards
Sunny
