[Infopro]

Yes, when they've updated the plugin.

AddonSoftware < AllDocumentation/ChangeLog < TWiki

Updates to cPAddons and WHM Plugins are not tied to the product version nor the publication tier.

 

[nerod]

Forgive me for being daft, but does that mean *I* have to update the plugin and/or clamav?

 

[cPanelTristan]

No, you do not have to update the plugin and/or clamav as we will periodically update it provided you have cPanel updates automatically set to happen on your machine.

Thank you for the detailed explanation. How long do the updates normally take? I've been seeing this update warning for quite a while; is it not integral for security & therefore the reason why it isn't yet updated?

Every night my server runs:
Cron <[email protected]> /usr/local/cpanel/scripts/upcp --cron‏

Is this what I need to ensure ClamAV remains up to date?

cPanel has a tendency of always being a bit slow as it comes to updates of clamAV. Simply (at least I think so) as it has no priority to them. Just give it a few days and it will be automatically updated or check out the manual-update script which was posted a while ago (search for my user_id).

Been seeing this message for over two weeks now: Local version: 0.97.4 Recommended version: 0.97.5

I guess you weren't kidding when you said they could be "a bit slow".

Hello

There is an active case with development to update ClamAV to version 0.97.5. The case number is 60197. There is a process for new software versions that includes quality testing to ensure a smooth implementation. There is currently no time frame available on when the update will occur, but the case has been updated to note this forum thread.

Thank you.

Thank you Michael,

Is there a new case number for "WARNING: Local version: 0.97.5 Recommended version: 0.97.6" which has been in Logwatch since September 19th?

Thank you Michael,

I have opened an internal case with our developers to update the version of ClamAV that cPanel distributes as part of clamavconnector to version 0.97.6. For reference, the internal case number is 61637.

Thank you.

No problem and thanks again Michael.

Re: ClamAV Plugin Out of Date - Does cpanel update this, or do I have to? [

since we are talking about updates...do you maybe know when will munin 2.0 go live?

 

[cPanelTristan]

Re: ClamAV Plugin Out of Date - Does cpanel update this, or do I have to? [

Would you like to open up a new thread for that question or have this post moved to a new thread, since munin isn't the same as clamav and should be in a different thread.

I just made some quick edits it worked.

For 64 Bit
First:

cd /usr/local/cpanel/modules-install/clamavconnector-Linux-x86_64

Next:

mv cpanclamav-0.97.5.tar.gz oldcp-0.97.5.tar.gz
mv cpanclamav-0.97.5.tar.gz.sig oldcp-0.97.5.tar.gz.sig

Then Edit the file as indicated
Editing AVV to current version 0.97.6, & AVVOLD= to whatever version you have.

Pico Installer

AVV=0.97.6
AVVOLD=0.97.5

Finally:

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/clamav/clamav/0.97.6/clamav-0.97.6.tar.gz?r=&ts=1349938920&use_mirror=iweb;./install;/scripts/perlinstaller --force File::Scan::ClamAV

If you are running a Linux-i686

First:

cd /usr/local/cpanel/modules-install/clamavconnector-Linux-i686

Next:

mv cpanclamav-0.97.5.tar.gz oldcp-0.97.5.tar.gz
mv cpanclamav-0.97.5.tar.gz.sig oldcp-0.97.5.tar.gz.sig

Then Edit the file as indicated
Editing AVV to current version 0.97.6, & AVVOLD= to whatever version you had.

Pico Installer

AVV=0.97.6
AVVOLD=0.97.5

Finally:

wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/clamav/clamav/0.97.6/clamav-0.97.6.tar.gz?r=&ts=1349938920&use_mirror=iweb;./install;/scripts/perlinstaller --force File::Scan::ClamAV

It shouldinstall everything like a regular cpanel update would.

Make sure you have plenty of free ram for cpanel alone during install.

Run:

whereis clamd

Result: clamd: /usr/sbin/clamd /etc/clamd.conf /usr/share/man/man8/clamd.8

Then:

freshclam

Result:
main.cvd is up to date (version: 54, sigs: 1044387, f-level: 60, builder: sven)
daily.cld is up to date (version: 15453, sigs: 276209, f-level: 63, builder: guitar)
bytecode.cvd is up to date (version: 190, sigs: 36, f-level: 63, builder: neo)

@ cPanel [ Michael | Tristan ]

It's that time again ;-)

WARNING: Your ClamAV installation is OUTDATED!
WARNING: Local version: 0.97.6 Recommended version: 0.97.7

If there isn't one already could you raise an internal case?

Many Thanks
Marty

The same still applies yayyo:

[cPanelMichael]

We do have an internal case open for an update of ClamAV to version 0.97.7. The case number is 64170.

Thank you.

 

[cybermonk]

cPanelMichael,
any chance you could have the team working on case number is 64170 make the jump straight to 0.97.8.

Dear ClamAV users,


"ClamAV 0.97.8 addresses several reported potential security bugs. Thanks to Felix Groebert of the Google Security Team for finding and reporting these issues."
