The framework now cycles through callbacks based on a table indexed
by analyzer tags, or the special case of service strings if a given
analyzer is overloaded for multiple protocols (FTP/IRC data). This
lets each protocol script bundle implement the callback locally and
reduces the FAF's external dependencies.
For files that go over a single connection, add connection start time
to handle, so the file id will always differ even if the same connection
parameters are later used to transfer a file (same one or different).
So much nicer!
Closes#954.
* origin/topic/seth/notice-framework-updates:
Update notice framework documentation to represent the new reality.
Complete removal of the old table based notice policy mechanism.
Updates for the notices framework.
This allows replacing an ugly openssl-call from one of
the policy scripts. The openssl call is now replaced with
a still-but-less-ugly call to base64_encode.
I do not know if I split the Base64 classes in a "smart" way... :)
The add_action, remove_action, and stop BIFs now go through a queue to
ensure that modifications are made at well-defined times and don't end
up invalidating loop iterators.
The Info record now uses a "table[ActionArgs] of ActionResults", which
allows for simultaneous actions of a given type as long as other args
(fields in the ActionArgs record) are different.
Added the file extraction action and did other misc. cleanup. Most of
the minimal core features/support for file analysis should be working at
this point, just have to start fleshing things out.
- Moved the Notice::notice event and Notice::policy table to both be hooks.
- Renamed the old Notice::policy to Notice::policy_table and documented it as deprecated.
Added a generic gtpv1_message event generated for any GTP message type.
Added specific events for the create/update/delete PDP context
request/response messages.
Addresses #934.
* origin/topic/matthias/notary:
Small cosmetic changes.
Give log buffer the correct name.
Simplify delayed logging of SSL records.
Implement delay-token style SSL logging.
More style tweaks: replace spaces with tabs.
Factor notary code into separte file.
Adhere to Bro coding style guidelines.
Enhance ssl.log with information from notary.
Closes#928
* topic/robin/exit-after-terminate:
Updating submodule(s).
Fixing exit-after-terminate when used with bare mode.
New option exit_only_after_terminate to prevent Bro from exiting.
These cases should be avoidable by fixing scripts where they occur and
they can also help catch typos that would lead to unintentional runtime
behavior.
Adding this already revealed several scripts where a field in an inlined
record was never removed after a code refactor.
* origin/topic/bernhard/input-logging-commmon-functions:
add the last of Robins suggestions (separate info-struct for constructors).
port memory leak fix from master
harmonize function naming
move AsciiInputOutput over to threading
and thinking about it, ascii-io doesn't need the separator
change constructors
and factor stuff out the input framework too.
factor out ascii input/output.
std::string accessors to escape_sequence functionality
intermediate commit - it has been over a month since I touched this...
I cleaned up the AsciiInputOutput class somewhat, including renaming
it to AsciiFormatter, renaming some of its methods, and turning the
static methods into members for consistency.
Closes#929.
Moved this functionality to be internal instead of in the script-layer
event handlers. The issue with the later is that bad things can happen
between the time a reporter event handler is dispatched and the time it
is executed, and if bro crashes in that time, the message may never be
seen/logged.
Addressed #930 (and revisits #836).
Sadly there also seems to be another deadlock issue which I am currently
not really able to figure out - on shutdown sometimes (too often) the main
thread + all sqlite threads wait for semaphores or mutexes.
- The feature was primarily added to allow the value to be
modified for cluster based intermediate threshold checks
without requiring the user to write the metrics filter
differently for cluster consideration. It's also a nice
way to calculate some related information to the metric
without accidently applying thresholds to that value.
- Fixed a few small bugs in ftp detect-bruteforcing script
and adapted it to the new threshold value selection feature.
- Fixed several state maintenance issues for intermediate updates.
- Added a new tuning variable Metrics::max_outstanding_global_views
which limits the number of in-flight intermediate updates per
metric filter.
- Changed the default global view threshold percent to 20% (up from 10%)
This commit moves the notary script into the policy directory, along with some
architectural changes: the main SSL script now has functionality to add and
remove tokens for a given record. When adding a token, the script delays the
logging until the token has been removed or until the record exceeds a maximum
delay time.
As before, the base SSL script stores all records sequentially and buffers even
non-delayed records for the sake of having an ordered log file. If this turns
out to be not so important, we can easily revert to a simpler logic.
(This is still WiP, some debuggin statements still linger.)
There exists one complication: the new file notary.bro requires the definition
of the SSL::Info record, but as does main.bro. Because I did not really know
where to put the common code (it's not a constant, so ssl/const.bro does not
really fit), I put it into __load.bro__ so that it sticks out for now. If
anybody has an idea how to solve this elegantly, please let me know.
