Hi, i think there's a problem in the new NISD called snort,
It read, and apply rules in order but if one match, other
are not considered. Look at this example...
i put this two rules in order in my ruleset-file
alert tcp 127.0.0.1/32 any -> 192.168.1.0/24 any (msg:"Attempt to Connect
via Fake Localhost;)
alert tcp any any -> 192.168.1.0/24 any (flags: A; ack: 0; msg:"NMAP TCP
ping";)
I send two packets (tcpdump it's yet the best) :
13:01:36.428180 127.0.0.1.2525 > 192.168.1.1.23: . ack 0 win 512
13:01:47.152670 10.1.1.1.4762 > 192.168.1.1.23: . ack 0 win 512
now, see what's appened:
1) for the first packet, i SHOULD get two alert,
- a forged packet with src 127.0.0.1 (Attempt to Connect via Fake
Localhost)
- the advice of an nmap tcp ping. (NMAP TCP ping!)
but i receive in my log only one !
Oct 24 13:01:36 NaiF syslog: Attempt to Connect via Fake Localhost:
127.0.0.1:2525 -> 192.168.1.1:23
and where's the signature of ack seq = 0 ?
2) next packet, should give me only one alert, and it' so
Oct 24 13:01:47 NaiF syslog: NMAP TCP ping!: 10.1.1.1:4762 ->
192.168.1.1:23
I can't check where's the code problem, cause i'm not yet an experience C
programmer:(
Sorry for my bad english..
