Hello Jean-François,
My question is, can I use the 30 that is not detected, have them pass
through VirusTotal and gradually upload them to the
www.clamav.net/reports/malware <http://www.clamav.net/reports/malware>
page.
You can use clamsubmit to submit a file. To submit 30 files to ClamAV
you can create a bash script.
It is faster than using the webform on clamav website.
Syntax is :
clamsubmit -e your_email -N your_name -n the_file_to_submit
So would it help to make clamav better or is it going to be just very
annoying and get myself banned....
As far as I know, it is OK to submit a lot of files to ClamAV team. I do
it sometimes too.
I sure would like to have clamav detect at least 90% of the lot. It
would be a long process but my health is not good and I am stuck home
with nothing to do. Doing that would at least make me feel useful a
little.
Yes, it will take time to ClamAV team to create signatures based on
submitted samples.
If you want immediate better detection you can use 3rd party signatures
for example :
https://www.securiteinfo.com/services/anti-spam-anti-virus/improve-detection-rate-of-zero-day-malwares-for-clamav.shtml
https://sanesecurity.com/usage/signatures/
Maybe the best point is to submit samples to ClamAV that are not
detected by anyone ?
Btw, be sure to submit *malwares* to ClamAV. Malware collections like
VirusShare contains a lot of false positives...
