Hi Wazuh,
We been working with the Wazuh manager and agent, version 2.0.1 for weeks, but yesterday the agent exe was copied to a cloud storage drive and our infrastructure team was alerted to it.  They very the MD5 is the same as on the wazuh website.  Our questions are, is Wazuh aware of this and what, if anything, could be done so that when deployed in the field, the agent doesn't trigger AV software?

Please let me know if you would like more information.  I'm not sure if the screenshots will be full sized and clear.




This is for the new 2.1 agent which does not set off our Sophos AV, but some others flag it



Regards,


Robert

Robert,

Some antivirus detects Wazuh based on certain conditions that seem to fulfill our binaries (and not as a result of a source code infection). We are working to fix this as soon as possible.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks for the update Jose!  Glad to know it's being worked on.  For our situation, we are using the 2.0.1-1 agent.  We haven't upgraded to 2.1.x yet.  Could you provide an update on the progress of the 2.0.x agent?

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

The process is very easy, you can download the package from :


Then you only need to install over the old one, that should works.

Anyway my recommendation is a backup the files client.keys and ossec.conf located in your installation folder, by default c:\Program Files (x86)\ossec-agent\


Our actual stable version is 2.1.0, but we are expecting a new release very very soon... so if you can wait a few... (hours? days?...)

Those Jose,
To clarify a little, we will be running the 2.0.1 manager for some time before upgrading it at some point in the future.  In this situation then, can we run the 2.1.0 (or newer agent) with the 2.0.1 manager without problem?

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

You can run 2.1.0 agents with the 2.0.1 manager without problems. But you will not get the new events sent by the agent, for example the anti flooding protection events.

Regards.

Robert,

Sophos Inc confirmed to me that the agent's binary is whitelisted after executing the Sophos Update Manager.

Please try again and tell us to close the issue.

Thank you so much!

in /var/ossec/etc/ossec.conf I added:

_ <REPORTS>_
_ <CATEGORY>PCI_DSS_11.4</CATEGORY>_
_ <TITLE>DAILY REGULATORY COMPLIANCE REPORT: PCIDSS 11.4_

Hi Yolanda, 

Currently the reports only offer summaries, but do not generate detailed reports, for a future version will improve the report feature. 

Perhaps as an alternative you can consider the idea of using https://github.com/sirensolutions/sentinl which is a kibana module which provides a feature of reports based on the logging of events stored in elasticsearch.

You can find more information about the SENTINL installation here: https://github.com/sirensolutions/sentinl/wiki

Thanks PG,

It never failed locally, just had a few online scanners indicate issues. 

 

I am able to download it.  I scanned the file and no issues presented from Sophos.


Regards,

Robert
