Virus infected message not marked as virus on mailwatch

Post by victorburgos »

Hi, I have this information on my logs that indicates message id 4D0VGH0j7xz2Zcts is infected with Sanesecurity.Jurlbl.16c7ab:

Code: Select all

Dec 22 09:42:48 filter MailScanner[19662]: Clamd::INFECTED::Sanesecurity.Jurlbl.16c7ab.UNOFFICIAL :: ./4D0VGH0j7xz2Zcts/

Dec 22 09:42:52 filter MailScanner[19662]: Message 4D0VGH0j7xz2Zcts from x.x.x.x (zantaclawsuit@goodtrade.buzz) to mydomain.com is spam, SPAMHAUS, SpamAssassin (no store, points=9.211, required 4, autolearn=spam, BAYES_99 3.50, BAYES_999 0.20, DCC_CHECK 1.10, DCC_REPUT_99_100 1.40, FROM_SUSPICIOUS_NTLD 0.50, FROM_SUSPICIOUS_NTLD_FP 1.25, FSL_BULK_SIG 0.00, HTML_FONT_LOW_CONTRAST 0.00, HTML_MESSAGE 0.00, MS_FOUND_SPAMVIRUS 3.00, NORDNS_LOW_CONTRAST 2.18, PDS_OTHER_BAD_TLD 2.00, RCVD_IN_SBL_CSS 3.33, RDNS_NONE 0.79, SPF_HELO_NONE 0.00, SPF_NONE 0.00, TXREP -0.05, URIBL_ABUSE_SURBL 20.00, URIBL_BLACK 20.00, URIBL_DBL_SPAM 20.00)
However, If I open that message id (4D0VGH0j7xz2Zcts) on mailwatch, it indicates there is no virus:
goto message.png
goto message.png (2.1 KiB) Viewed 1800 times
No virus on mailwatch
No virus on mailwatch
no virus when spam.png (37.17 KiB) Viewed 1800 times
Why is it not indicating that this is a virus?
Note: the message was marked as spam, not sure if that is related to the problem.

Thanks

Even though the antivirus detected this, it is a "spam virus" meaning it matched a spam signature, so instead of flagging it as a virus (because it really isn't) it flags it as a spam.
