What's the correct protocol?

Failed connection to https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures - SKIPPED SecuriteInfo securiteinfopdf.hdb update

If you go to https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures it is a 404, and if you go to https://www.securiteinfo.com/get it is also a 404

According to the clamav-unofficial-sigs configuration file:

# Usage of SecuriteInfo 2015 free clamav signatures : https://www.securiteinfo.com
# - 1. Sign up for a free account : https://www.securiteinfo.com/clients/customers/signup
# - 2. You will recieve an email to activate your account and then a followup email with your login name
# - 3. Login and navigate to your customer account : https://www.securiteinfo.com/clients/customers/account
# - 4. Click on the Setup tab
# - 5. You will need to get your unique identifier from one of the download links, they are individual for every user

# - 5.2. Example https://www.securiteinfo.com/get/signatures/your_unique_and_very_long_random_string_of_characters/securiteinfo.hdb
#   Your 128 character authorisation signature would be : your_unique_and_very_long_random_string_of_characters
# - 6. Enter the authorisation signature into the config securiteinfo_authorisation_signature: replacing YOUR-SIGNATURE-NUMBER with your authorisation signature from the link

Same problem here.
Did you solve the problem?

Ok I could solve the problem.

Seems that "dig" which is used for getting the mirrors for Sanesecurity is not working as the script expects it on some distros. This fact seems to be known by the author of the script and for that he implemented a fallback using "host" command instead. This fallback could be enabled by setting "force_host" to "yes" in your config.

However the logic in the script for this is broken. If you add the dig_bin="" line as seen in the code below it works as expected. I'm not very familiar with git so maybe someone else could add this fix in an appropriate way

if [ -z "$dig_bin" ] || [ "$force_host" == "yes" ] ; then
    if [ -z "$host_bin" ] ; then
        host_bin="$(command -v host 2> /dev/null)"
        dig_bin=""
        if [ -z "$host_bin" ] ; then
            xshok_pretty_echo_and_log "ERROR: both host (host_bin) and dig (dig_bin) commands are missing, One of them is required"
            exit 1
        fi
    elif [[ "$host_bin" =~ "/" ]] ; then
        if [ ! -x "$host_bin" ] ; then
            xshok_pretty_echo_and_log "ERROR: host_bin (${host_bin}) is not executable"
            exit 1
        fi
    fi
else
    host_bin=""
    force_host="no"
fi

Problem was that if "dig" is installed on computer but produces empty results the original implementation fails
