The ClamAV CDN may send a 403 (forbidden) response for database
downloads to networks that are explicitly blocked for one reason or
another, or for download requests from out-of-date freshclam clients or
clients other than freshclam and cvdupdate.
The volume of data serving 403 responses to clients that are blocked and
retry in a tight loop is considerable.
This commit seeks to remedy that for future freshclam versions by
extending freshclam's self-regulated cool-down for 429 (retry later)
responses to include 403 (forbidden) responses.
The cooldown period if a 403 is received will be 24 hours.
Some users have scripts set up from long ago to delete mirrors.dat if
FreshClam failed. We used to recommend this if people had technical
issues because mirrors.dat would store a bunch of entries indicating
that all of their regional mirrors were failing and then FreshClam would
give up.
The new freshclam DAT file no longer stores that kind of information.
Deleting the DAT file is no longer sound advice.
We very much want the UUID, which is generated when creating the DAT
file, to persist between runs. So unless people go and change the
scripts to delete freshclam.dat instead, this commit should resolve the
concern.
Improvements to use modern block list and allow list verbiage.
blacklist -> block list
whitelist -> allow listed
blacklisted -> blocked
whitelisted -> allowed
In the case of certificate verification, use "trust" or "verify" when
something is allowed.
Also changed domainlist -> domain list (or DomainList) to match.
The named "shared" is confusing, especially now that these features are
built as a static library instead of being directly compiled into the
various applications.
If a new CVD download gets a version that is older than advertised, keep
the older version and retry the update so the incremental (CDIFF) update
gets us to the latest version.
Add back the mirrors.dat file to the database directory.
This new version of mirros.dat will store:
- A randomly generated UUID for the FreshClam User-Agent.
- A retry-after timestamp that so FreshClam won't try to update after
having received an HTTP 429 response until the Retry-After timeout has
expired.
Also: FreshClam will now exit with a failure in daemon mode if an HTTP
403 (Forbidden) was received, because retrying later won't help any.
The FreshClam user will have to take actions to get unblocked.
Added special warning messages for 403 and 429 HTTP codes.
For 403, FreshClam will fail (non-zero exit code) if not in daemon-mode.
For 429, FreshClam will succeed (exit 0) if not in daemon-mode.
Adds If-Modified-Since header for CVD downloads (not just CVD-head)
which should reduce data usage if DNS is advertising a newer version
than is actually available, which seems to happen sometimes due to
caching issues, it should still fail out when this happens - it just
won't have to download the older CVD, and should detect the HTTP 304
(Not-Modified) response instead.
Also replaced "Freshclam" with "FreshClam" in a few places, for
consistency.
This patch adds experimental-quality CMake build tooling.
The libmspack build required a modification to use "" instead of <> for
header #includes. This will hopefully be included in the libmspack
upstream project when adding CMake build tooling to libmspack.
Removed use of libltdl when using CMake.
Flex & Bison are now required to build.
If -DMAINTAINER_MODE, then GPERF is also required, though it currently
doesn't actually do anything. TODO!
I found that the autotools build system was generating the lexer output
but not actually compiling it, instead using previously generated (and
manually renamed) lexer c source. As a consequence, changes to the .l
and .y files weren't making it into the build. To resolve this, I
removed generated flex/bison files and fixed the tooling to use the
freshly generated files. Flex and bison are now required build tools.
On Windows, this adds a dependency on the winflexbison package,
which can be obtained using Chocolatey or may be manually installed.
CMake tooling only has partial support for building with external LLVM
library, and no support for the internal LLVM (to be removed in the
future). I.e. The CMake build currently only supports the bytecode
interpreter.
Many files used include paths relative to the top source directory or
relative to the current project, rather than relative to each build
target. Modern CMake support requires including internal dependency
headers the same way you would external dependency headers (albeit
with "" instead of <>). This meant correcting all header includes to
be relative to the build targets and not relative to the workspace.
For example, ...
```c
include "../libclamav/clamav.h"
include "clamd/clamd_others.h"
```
... becomes:
```c
// libclamav
include "clamav.h"
// clamd
include "clamd_others.h"
```
Fixes header name conflicts by renaming a few of the files.
Converted the "shared" code into a static library, which depends on
libclamav. The ironically named "shared" static library provides
features common to the ClamAV apps which are not required in
libclamav itself and are not intended for use by downstream projects.
This change was required for correct modern CMake practices but was
also required to use the automake "subdir-objects" option.
This eliminates warnings when running autoreconf which, in the next
version of autoconf & automake are likely to break the build.
libclamav used to build in multiple stages where an earlier stage is
a static library containing utils required by the "shared" code.
Linking clamdscan and clamdtop with this libclamav utils static lib
allowed these two apps to function without libclamav. While this is
nice in theory, the practical gains are minimal and it complicates
the build system. As such, the autotools and CMake tooling was
simplified for improved maintainability and this feature was thrown
out. clamdtop and clamdscan now require libclamav to function.
Removed the nopthreads version of the autotools
libclamav_internal_utils static library and added pthread linking to
a couple apps that may have issues building on some platforms without
it, with the intention of removing needless complexity from the
source. Kept the regular version of libclamav_internal_utils.la
though it is no longer used anywhere but in libclamav.
Added an experimental doxygen build option which attempts to build
clamav.h and libfreshclam doxygen html docs.
The CMake build tooling also may build the example program(s), which
isn't a feature in the Autotools build system.
Changed C standard to C90+ due to inline linking issues with socket.h
when linking libfreshclam.so on Linux.
Generate common.rc for win32.
Fix tabs/spaces in shared Makefile.am, and remove vestigial ifndef
from misc.c.
Add CMake files to the automake dist, so users can try the new
CMake tooling w/out having to build from a git clone.
clamonacc changes:
- Renamed FANOTIFY macro to HAVE_SYS_FANOTIFY_H to better match other
similar macros.
- Added a new clamav-clamonacc.service systemd unit file, based on
the work of ChadDevOps & Aaron Brighton.
- Added missing clamonacc man page.
Updates to clamdscan man page, add missing options.
Remove vestigial CL_NOLIBCLAMAV definitions (all apps now use
libclamav).
Rename Windows mspack.dll to libmspack.dll so all ClamAV-built
libraries have the lib-prefix with Visual Studio as with CMake.
Freshclam creates a tmp directory in the database directory used to
store downloaded patches or databases before they replace current
databases. The tmp directory previously was created at when freshclam
was initialized and deleted when freshclam exited. This was problematic
if freshclam was run in daemon mode and then run manually while the
daemon was already running.
This commit alters the behavior to create tmp directory with a random
suffix before the update begins and remove this directory when the
update ends, allowing freshclam to be run manually without causing the
freshclam daemon to fail later.
New features added to freshclam:
- Update signature definitions over HTTPS.
- Support for HTTP protocol v1.1 (formerly v1.0).
- New libfreshclam library with an all new API and versioning separate from libclamav (v2.0.0). This library is now build and installed alongside libclamav as a hard dependency of freshclam.
- The ability to opt-in and opt-out of standard and optional official ClamAV databases (ExtraDatabase, ExcludeDatabase)
- The option to specify the protocol and port number of official and private mirror servers.
- Support for additional types of proxy servers beyond plain HTTP (SOCKS 4, SOCKS 5).
Features removed from freshclam:
- Mirror management (mirrors.dat) file. This feature is no longer needed as official signature databases are distributed using a paid content delivery network (Cloudflare).
This commit also adds the following features for Windows users:
- The clamsubmit tool.
- The json-c library dependency, which will enable the --gen-json option in clamscan.
- Third party libraries under the win32/3rdparty directory have been removed. Developers will need to build the libraries separately from ClamAV and provide the headers and lib/dll library files the same way they do for OpenSSL. This includes libxml2, pthread-win32, bzip2, zlib, pcre2 as well as new dependencies: curl, json-c. Developers are encouraged to use the build tool Mussels to simplify this task.
I got rid of AllowSupplementaryGroups in commit 2ea4230df2 ("bb11557 - drop
AllowSupplementaryGroups option and make it default, patch by Sebastian A.
Siewior") but it sneaked in again.
Remove AllowSupplementaryGroups because it should be default now.
