McAfee Anti-Virus Causes Widespread File Damage 353

AJ Mexico writes, "[Friday] McAfee released an anti-virus update that contained an anomaly in the DAT file that caused many important files to be deleted from affected systems. At my company, tens of thousands of files were deleted from dozens of servers and around 2000 user machines. Affected applications included MS Office, and products from IBM (Rational), GreenHills, MS Office, Ansys, Adobe, Autocad, Hyperion, Win MPM, MS Shared, MapInfo, Macromedia, MySQL, CA, Cold Fusion, ATI, FTP Voyager, Visual Studio, PTC, ADS, FEMAP, STAT, Rational.Apparently the DAT file targeted mostly, if not exclusively, DLLs and EXE files." An anonymous reader added, "Already, the SANS Internet Storm Center received a number of notes from distressed sysadmins reporting thousands of deleted or quarantined files. McAfee in response released advice to restore the files. Users who configured McAfee to delete files are left with using backups (we all got good backups... or?) or System restore."

    Corporate User : Low
    Home User : Low

          That's very funny. When a ubervirus thrashes a couple of corporate networks to the tune of a billion dollars apiece, we hear "Stupid admins - the patch was available - they weren't keeping up". Now it's "They should have tested before rolling them out." (paraphrased)

          It appears, therefore, that using a system that is subject to viruses and security vulnerabilities on the scale of Windows is inherently untenable. We can't even define logically consistent expectations for the administrators of such systems. Can we stop using them now?

          More often than not, the choice to put AV software on systems wasn't a sysadmin choice, but a management/business choice. IE, cost reasons, CYA reasons, lower priority than say getting that next X million dollar project up and running, or some other reason which pre-empts AV stuff.

          I don't use AV software on my systems at home, but that's a personal choice. Not due to laziness, but because other measures have been taken: strong firewalling, restricted software on desktops, strong desktop settings, regular backups, and sufficiently educating anyone who uses the computer of the dangers they can face, what online actions are risky, and to abide by the basic rules so as to avoid putting your data/computer at risk.

          For half a decade, I've gone without AV software and have had all of my systems virii/adware/malware free. This isn't due to laziness, but diligence and preparation. This isn't due to OS fanatacism, but making a decision about what compromises to make between security and usability. I use WinXPpro, Linux, and MacOSX systems at home.

          When people passively rely on external assistance, like AV software, something like this would eventually happen. People make mistakes. Companies make mistakes. And when you have a large install base, those mistakes can easily become big monstrous mistakes.

          Right now, ALOT of sysadmins are probably sweating bullets getting systems back online. This isn't because they were lazy. This was because someone at another company screwed up and it impacted their infrastructure, which in turn impacts their business.

          Make no mistake, people will get sued and lawyers will get involved. Think it was just the businesses and end users of the AV software that got screwed? What about the customers of the businesses? What about the home users who run their business off of their home computers? Yeah, there'll be some noise about this down the road, make no mistake.

          *listens over the cube walls* I don't hear any cursing or screaming, so it hasn't happened here or the OS admins have done their homework over the weekend. In either case, this will be interesting to follow in the months to come.

        Even better are McAfee's instructions for how to recover from the damage their product has done. The first option is to restore the files from quarantine, assuming your version of McAfee actually lets you do this (not all, including the corporate version, have this option). The second is to use Windows System Restore.

        This probably would have worked great on my machine if it weren't for the fact that half of the files McAfee quarantined were *System Restore files*.

        Apparently McAfee hasn't heard of a novel concept called "testing". (I like how they've posted a list on their website of the false positive files, now 7 pages long and still woefully incomplete; they ought to just admit it's going to take a random assortment of exes and dlls on any machine.)

        Combine this with the fact that the default settings on a McAfee install are to quarantine without prompting, and IMHO McAfee is the most dangerous virus I've ever had on my machine.

    This is a major problem with anti-virus software. Because of their blacklist model, they have to release definitions and updates very frequently. They have to release these updates as quickly as possible as well, or else their subscribers will be infected with these viruses before they get the updates. In addition, their software is very bloated and complicated, needing to be able to defend against a huge variety of attacks, both immidiate and obsolete. This results in a very error-likely situation. What the network security companies need to work on is an innovative way to effectively protect corporate and home networks without having to use dangerous bloatware.

      Then, for your workstations create images of the disks. Don't let users perform upgrades unless they assume the responsibility for the box. Next, test the update on a limited subset of boxes. If it works then roll it out. If by chance you screwed up rollback to images that are stable and perform the safer updates.

      I don't think there really is a way apart from having verifiable restorable backups of every system prior to patching. I was having a conversation along these lines this morning and the agreed solution was to have an identical test platform and install on that first, allow it to run long enough for any problems to arise and only then implement on a production system. That's the ultra-conservative approach but many years in financial services have shown that that's the only way of being certain.

    When the virus scanners act like viruses, what should users do? This isn't the first time a virus scanner has screwed up, and it probably won't be the last time, either.

    Furthermore, a lot of virus scanners have an option to "auto-update". Imagine if an entire company had this option turned on.

    Virus scanners have always been a bad solution to the problem of viruses. They don't fix the problem at its root. Instead of ensuring their operating system has no known security holes, users now rely on virus scanners to just catch everything that comes through. Any determined attacker could still just craft a custom virus to attack any host they desire. Since the virus scanner companies wouldn't have come across that particular virus, it wouldn't get picked up.

    People percieve paid software to be superior to free alternatives because A: nothing could go wrong with paid software and B: if something did go wrong, obviously the company would indemnify / rectify / fix the problem.

    Likewise, the perception is that the more expensive the software (and the bigger the box it comes in) the more protection you are afforded. And that the company won't suddenly decide to change direction / stop supporting the software / etc.

    Yet time and time again this is shown not to be true. McAfee uninstalls arbitrary files on your computer (how'd that get through testing?) and just tells users to re-install from backup... exactly the kind of calamity the software is supposed to prevent. Part of WinNT5 was found to violate someone's patent, and anyone using that particular (admittedly rare) function had to pony up to the original patent holder or write a workaround.

    As far as I can tell, the "little guys" software tends to be better in general than the big boys. Why? Because they're still trying. Before Norton was Symantec, they struggled to create an amazing toolkit of software tweaks that really did some great things. Now that their position is secure, they've hardly updated the suite to even work with XP, let alone taken advantage of the fixes and hacks that smaller houses have found. McAfee, once a nimble little company making a great little product, has been bloating for years. The more developers you add to a project, the less anyone knows about what the system is doing.

Along with that, I always wait three to four days before pushing the updates out. Even if you don't use the full McAfee Epolicy Orchestrator, you can still configure the clients to point to an ftp server on your network for updates. Just like with MS patches, it's simply prudent to wait a few days just in case there's any issues like this that may arise.

    Comcast gives away McAfee AV for free to customers, so I tried it out. The only time it ever caught anything at all was a false-positive. Complete file system scans never ever turned up anything. However, if I opened a folder with a file in it called SetupDVDDecrypter_3.5.4.0.exe in it, McAfee would call it a virus and delete it. Didn't matter which version of the installer actually, it would delete it. Didn't matter if the AV program was configured to only quarantine suspect files, it would delete it. Didn't matter if I made an empty text file then renamed it to SetupDVDDecrypter_3.5.4.0.exe, McAfee AV would delete it. If I renamed the installer to something else, McAfee AV did nothing.

    Pretty obvious to me that it was just waiting to find files that media companies didn't like people to have on their own private property so I'm guessing that they must have gotten McAfee to agree to do their dirty work for them and call stuff they don't like a virus and automatically delete the file regardless of settings.

    But that's just my conspiracy theory.

    On an old WinME laptop, the only virus I ever had on it was Norton AntiVirus.

    I worked on a consulting job two years ago, and they told me I could use my own PC. No problem - except that, when I got there, they wanted to check it for virii. In an XP world, I was running Windows ME. So they loaded up Norton on my machine, and ran it for about 3 hours.

    Result? Nothing. No junk of any kind. Completely clean.

    Why? It helped that I had the free version of Zone Alarm, and the firewall on my DSL router definitely helped, but I think the biggest reason I had no problems was

    - Mozilla instead of IE
    - Eudora instead of Outlook.

    Always beware of any software updates released on a Friday. If there's a problem, much of the damage will be done before anyone returns on Monday.

    [Team Leader]: So Steve is new here so, Bob, why don't you show him a simple virus definition for one of these low-priority viruses?
    [Bob]: Sure. This virus is low-threat but can masquarade as numerous file names so why don't you just look for a common pattern and write a REGEXP function?
    [Steve]: Sure.
    [Bob]: You know how to write regular expressions, right?
    [Steve]: Yeah, sure, the one's with the asterisks.
    [Bob]: Erm, yeah. I'll leave you to it. Just send it to the database so it can get filed in the next update.
    [Steve]: OK, see you later.
