In the past, we used a default canonifier, which removes everything that
looks like a timestamp from log files. The goal of this is to prevent
logs from changing, e.g., due to local system times ending up in log
files.
This, however, also has the side-effect of removing information that is
parsed from protocols which probably should be part of our tests.
There is at least one test (1999 certificates) where the entire test
output was essentially removed by the canonifier.
GH-4521 was similarly masked by this.
This commit changes the default canonifier, so that only the first
timestamp in a line is removed. This should skip timestamps that are
likely to change while keeping timestamps that are parsed
from protocol information.
A pass has been made over the tests, with some additional adjustments
for cases which require the old canonifier.
There are some cases in which we probably could go further and not
remove timestamps at all - that, however, seems like a follow-up
project.
Update cipher consts.
Furthermore some past updates have been applied to scriptland, but it
was not considered that some of these also have to be applied to binpac
code, to be able to correcly parse the ServerKeyExchange message.
(As a side-note - this was discovered due to a test discrepancy with the
Spicy parser)
The added disable-certificate-events-known-certs.zeek disables repeated
X509 events in SSL connections, given that the connection terminates at
the same server and used the samt SNI as a previously seen connection
with the same certificate.
For people that see significant amounts of TLS 1.2 traffic, this could
reduce the amount of raised events significantly - especially when a
lot of connections are repeat connections to the same servers.
The practical impact of not raising these events is actually very little
- unless a script directly interacts with the x509 events, everything
works as before - the x509 variables in the connection records are still
being set (from the cache).
