detect and block ACE archive

Fri Apr 20 11:22:11 CEST 2018

Hello Marcin,

here is how you can block ACE archives:

First you need to add the following line to $map_full_type_to_short_type_re in /usr/sbin/amavisd-new:

  $map_full_type_to_short_type_re = [
    …
    [qr/^ACE archive\b/i                   => 'ace-unwanted'],   <=== add this line
    …
  ];

This line maps the output of the file utility (…result line from file(1): p002: ACE archive data version 20…) to "ace-unwanted".

Then you add "ace-unwanted" to $banned_filename_re in your config:

$banned_filename_re = new_RE(
  …
  qr'^\.(ace-unwanted)$'i,     <=== add this line
  …
);

Regards,

Christian

Betreff: detect and block ACE archive

Hello,
Recently, bad people try to send ransomware in ACE archive with .rar extension. Inside is .jse file.

Unfortunately, amavisd-new is passing this undetected (does not recognize ACE archive and can’t unpack it).

Kwit_Skan.rar: ACE archive data version 20, from Win/32, version 20 to extract, with recovery record, solid

I try to block it:

$banned_filename_re = new_RE(
### BLOCKED ANYWHERE
# qr'^UNDECIPHERABLE$',  # is or contains any undecipherable components
  qr'^\.(exe-ms|dll)$',                   # banned file(1) types, rudimentary
  qr'^\.jse$',
  qr'^\.pif$',
  qr'^\.ace$',
  qr'^ACE archive data version.*$',

But amavisd-new still passes this ransomware archives☹

Can you help me with banning ACE archive by filetype or add support for ACE archives to amavisd (eg. by using unace)?
I’m using amavisd-new-2.11.0-3.el7.noarch on CentOS Linux release 7.4.1708
