Maybe infection

Hello,

Today two of my server sent email from clamscan cron, it write about certbot letsencrypt is infected.

See it by yourself /snap/certbot/1582/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t32.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1582/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t64.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1582/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w32.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1582/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w64.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t32.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t64-arm.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/t64.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w32.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w64-arm.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND /snap/certbot/1670/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pip/_vendor/distlib/w64.exe: Win.Malware.Generic-9937882-0 FOUND

Is it true?

I don’t know where I need write this. Somebody can help please?

Thanks Arnaud

It’s likely a false positive, but you can ask ClamAV to review it here, and the store listing shows the primary contact to be their Github Issues tracker, so it’s likely worth getting in touch with them directly too.

Thank you for this information.

I see after it was an old certbot version, a new one is already installed without clamav signal, so i removed the old version from the servers.

Thanks

FYI - related thread on clamav-users list, looks like it was an error: https://www.mail-archive.com/clamav-users@lists.clamav.net/msg51536.html
