<PRE>Le lundi 14 mars 2011 &#224; 14:26 +0000, Mattias Kilbo a &#233;crit :
&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; I do not know if we have anything like this already
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; but if not:
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; How about we put some anti malware checking on our
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; repositories? So
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; when someone adds or changes a package an automatic
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; anti malware check
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; is done.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Well, what do you propose to setup ?
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Do you have a product that would have detected what
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; happened to gentoo ?
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; -- Michael Scherer
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; 
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> I do not have deep enough knowledge in packaging to have a setup. But something along the lines of:
</I>&gt;<i> A package is uploaded
</I>&gt;<i> An automatic test is done with some anti-malware program
</I>&gt;<i> If anything suspicious if found the update is set on hold until some &quot;admin&quot; checks the potential malware.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> There are some anti virus programs for Linux
</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_malware#Anti-virus_applications">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_malware#Anti-virus_applications</A>
</I>&gt;<i> And some of them (at least on windows) can find malware in code that is not yet know as malware. I do not know if any of it would have detected the Unreal malware.
</I>
How does it find the difference between : 
openssh listen on port 22 when run, and accept command,
and
malware listen on some port, and accept command that run some software ?
