For those who haven't already seen it, there's been an item on BugTraq
about bypassing ZoneAlarm MailSafe. Whilst that in itself probably
doesn't concern exim-users, there's an interesting point raised about
filtering for Windows.

Windows ignores a trailing dot on a filename. "foo.exe." is the same as
"foo.exe".


This is my M4 source for my personal machine's virus filter, based
originally upon Nigel's filter. It bears an uncanny resemblance to M4
source used elsewhere, since I M4-ised both, independently.

The securityfocus bypass is for a simple reason: if someone's reading
BugTraq, assume they know what they're doing. Enough past examples of
live attacks posted to the list have led to those who can be educated
being so educated, and not reading BugTraq from a Windows box.

gm4 =3D=3D GNU m4, since OpenBSD's m4 didn't handle this at the time.

The trailing dnl-comment picking apart the regexp is a little dated.
I've added logging (at least, I don't think that was originally in
there). Neither postmaster@ nor abuse@ are filtered. This also blocks
files which are given as an "inline"-disposed MIME-part, not just
"attachment".

Hope this helps someone,

dnl
dnl This filter tries to parse MIME with a regexp... that doesn't
dnl work too well. It will also only see the amount of the body

dnl ### BASIS
dnl
dnl The regexp that is used to pickup MIME/uuencoded parts is replicated
dnl below (in perl format). You need to remember that exim converts
dnl newlines to spaces in the message_body variable.

dnl (?:Type: (?>\s*)=09=09=09=09# rest of c/t header

dnl |Disposition: (?>\s*)=09=09=09# content-disposition hdr
dnl attachment)=09=09=09=09# content-disposition
dnl ;(?>\s*)=09=09=09=09=09# ; space or newline
dnl (?:file)?name=3D=09=09=09=09# filename=3D/name=3D
dnl |begin (?>\s+) [0-7]{3,4} (?>\s+)) =09=09# begin octal-mode
