Bizarre Email about Clamav

I received this bizarre Email that was sent to my domain administrative contact email address. It had the IP address of my EFA box. Anyone else get this?
Hello,
Your server mail.domain.net (x.x.x.x) is downloading additional signatures
for Clamav antivirus at clamav.securiteinfo.com.
clamav.securiteinfo.com will be discontinued soon.
However, now up-to-date signatures are available for free at
https://www.securiteinfo.com/services/i ... amav.shtml
I remain at your disposal for any further information.
Best regards,
Arnaud Jacques / SecuriteInfo.com

What version of EFA are you using?
Securiteinfo.com was removed in 3.0.0.8.
Issue #173 Enhancement - Securiteinfo.com support removed from unofficial-sigs

Log into your efa box via ssh
run this shell command: 'cat /etc/EFA-Version'
report the results.
Possible feature request: place the version number in the web interface somewhere.

EFA-3.0.0.7
Hmmm, I guess auto-update doesn't update the version?

If auto update is enabled, perhaps something is preventing your system from updating? Rebooted lately?
I would try a manual update and see if you can spot if something is preventing the update.
Here's some info on how to update:

Strange, I haven't had time to try to manually do the upgrade, but I got an email from the server this morning saying it has upgraded to 3.0.0.8 and it needs to be rebooted to complete, so I rebooted it and it's still at 3.0.0.7

It'll probably run the second part of the update soon, then.

Still can't get it to update, restarted many times and tried again still no luck:

You are missing grub, it appears. Is this a custom build using something else, such as grub2?
grep: /boot/grub/menu.lst: No such file or directory
You may need bypass the EFA-update-script as follows:
Code: Select all
wget http://dl.efa-project.org/update/EFA-Update-3.0.0.7-3.0.0.8.tar.gz
tar xzvf EFA-Update-3.0.0.7-3.0.0.8.tar.gz
chmod 700 EFA-Version-Upgrade
sudo ./EFA-Version-Upgrade

It's a vps so there's no bootloader, I made a fake menu.lst just to make it happy and it gives the same error, tried to do the manual update as you suggested but it errors with:
cp: cannot stat `/tmp/EFA-Staging/Files/Spamassassin-3.4.0a-EFA-Upgrade.tar.gz': No such file or directory

Update to Version 3.0.0.8 FAILED. Updates cancelled.
/tmp directory exists, but I guess it doesnt create the files there?

Whoops my bad. Let's do this instead so that the scripts are happy...
Code: Select all
sudo mkdir /tmp/EFA-Staging
cd /tmp/EFA-Staging
sudo wget http://dl.efa-project.org/update/EFA-Update-3.0.0.7-3.0.0.8.tar.gz
sudo tar xzvf EFA-Update-3.0.0.7-3.0.0.8.tar.gz
sudo rm -f /var/EFA/update/EFA-Version-Upgrade
sudo cp EFA-Version-Upgrade /var/EFA/update/EFA-Version-Upgrade
sudo chmod 700 /var/EFA/update/EFA-Version-Upgrade
sudo /var/EFA/update/EFA-Version-Upgrade
