Re: [Snort-Users] BAD-TRAFFIC small or zero-sized tcp window

If you change this:

preprocessor stream5_tcp: policy windows, detect_anomalies, require_3whs 180

this this:

preprocessor stream5_tcp: policy windows,  require_3whs 180

and restart snort it will not alert you on that.

Thanks for the quick reply.
As I understand correctly stream5 is preprocessor and this message is
generating by rule. How does they cooperate with each other? What should I
remove in stream5?
I cant use suppress rules because I don't know every peer IP address.
I'd like to disable this messages so that will not affect not false
positive situations. Maybe it's better to disable completely analyzing
torrent traffic?

Thanks

You can either use threshold.conf to supress it or remove the
detect_anomalies (or whatever it is) from stream5 configuration in your
snort.conf (it will be in the tcp line, you will spot it. Read the snort
manual or stream5 if you want to make sure you remove it correctly so stream
5 is the same (basically if it is like option, option option, remove option
, to make sure you don't get ,, or something silly).


suppress gen_id 1, sig_id 1839006, track by_src, ip 194.189.116.0/23

Hello,

I have plenty of this messages during torrent downloading.
System is Centos5 and client rtorrent.
Snort signature information <http://rootedyour.com/snortsid?sid=3:15912> says
that
"This event is generated when an attempt is made to exploit a known
vulnerability in Microsoft Windows"
and
"False Positives: None known."

Tell please, how can I get rid of them.

Anton
