Subject: AVG scan found WIN-HEUR virus in cygwin install from aarnet ftp
MIME-Version: 1.0
References: <412824260 DOT 1534094 DOT 1458171873522 DOT JavaMail DOT yahoo DOT ref AT mail DOT yahoo DOT com>

  AVG anti-virus reported it found a virus in a Cygwin install pulled from aarnet on 8 Jan 2014.

"";"Virus found Win32/Heur, C:\Users\justin\Desktop\ftp%3a%2f%2fmirror.aarnet.edu.au%2fpub%2fsourceware%2fcygwin%2f\x86\release\cygwin\cygwin-debuginfo\cygwin-debuginfo-1.7.27-2.tar.xz";"Secured"

The AVG info on the reported virus is as follows:

http://www.avgthreatlabs.com/au-en/virus-and-malware-information/info/win-heur/?name=Win32/Heur&utm_source=TDPU&utm_medium=SCAN&PRTYPE=AVF

I think it has been lurking there for some time. You might want to check into it to make sure nothing has sneaked in.

Justin
