Last Local Malware Detection

Pacerfan9_2 — Tue, 12 Mar 2019 12:56:38 GMT

Under System, Integration, AMP for Networks my FireSIGHT reports the Last Local Malware Detection Update as Thu Jan 28 18:13:40 2016. Is that correct?

If not is there a way to force or schedule an auto update? Everything else on my system (rules, geolocation) seems to be updating correctly. I just updated to FireSIGHT 6.0.1 and still have the same results.

Hi,

Hi,

Are you also getting errors related to update failure for the same on the Firepower Management Center?

Thanks,

Ankita

I see numerous entries under

I see numerous entries under System > Health > Events for AMP for Firepower Status where it says Successfully connected to cloud. The value is 0.

Seeing the same. Long time since last local m/w detection sync with cisco.

No issues connecting to cloud, even enabled legacy outbound TCP/32137.

Hello Vance

Please check if the messages show any error messages as follows:-

"Sourcefire3D SF-IMS[2420]: [2459] CloudAgent:ClamUpdater [ERROR] Could not open dir"

Check if the clamupdate.log shows the following error logs.

"hifistatic.cvd FAILED FIO_ERROR"

You can also check if the following directory is missing or not.

/var/sf/clamupd_download/

Regards

Hello Jetsy, thank you for the reply,

1. Message log looks clean, no "ClamUpdater [ERROR]" found. Updates every 30 minutes, latest abbreviated message log:

Apr  5 14:20:41 . SF-IMS[4393]: [4393] CloudAgent:CloudAgent [INFO] ClamUpd, time to check for updates

2. The '/var/log/clamupdate.log' appears clean?

1484349440 preclass.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS
1484349441 hifistatic.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS
1487282062 preclass.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS
1487282062 hifistatic.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS
1487870803 hifistatic.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS
... (repeated hifistatic.cvd success)
1513200956 hifistatic.cvd SUCCESS SUCCESS

3. The '/var/sf/clamupd_download/' directory looks populated with files and directories, along with timestamps:

root@xxx:/var/sf/clamupd_download# ls -ls
total 3440
   4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root     114 Dec 13 21:35 checksum
   4 drwxr-xr-x 2 www  www     4096 Jan 13  2017 health
   4 -rw-r--r-- 1 www  www      110 Dec 13 21:35 health_status
3400 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3478378 Dec 13 21:35 hifistatic.cvd
   4 drwxr-xr-x 2 www  www     4096 Mar 15 17:51 peers
  20 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root   16913 Feb 16  2017 preclass.cvd
   4 drwxr-xr-x 2 www  www     4096 Dec 13 21:35 tmp
root@xxx:/var/sf/clamupd_download#

By all accounts the update mechanism(s) look to be functioning.

Hello Vance

In that case I would recommend you to open a TAC case so that we can investigate if there is any known issue causing this behaviour.

Solved.

Move the checksum file out of the way and when ClamAV does it's half-hour update,

the directory should populate with new CVD ClamAV database files.

SSH to the FMC

sudo -i

cd /var/sf/clamupd_download/

ls -ls # take note of timestamps on the files

mv checksum .. # I moved mine up a directory level

# watch for next cloudupdate agent pull, it may be every half hour.

cat /var/log/messages | grep ClamUpdater

# in /var/sf/clamup_download/

ls -ls # see if timestamps on the files change.

If the timestamps are new with a new checksum file created, the FMC should reflect the latest update time.
