Subject: [Snort-sigs] Email Tracking Code Signature

I was wondering if snort has the capability to detect a tracking code in an email source code. I'm sure this 
rule/signature  would be expensive in terms of resource utilization. I've noticed that targeted phishing emails will 
have these embedded into the source code as a callback.




Check out the sensitive data options in snort.conf and the sensitive-data.rules...should give you an idea of what you 
can do to match those.  Be prepared for some false positives.
