Namely these are now removed:
- Broker::relay
- Broker::publish_and_relay
- Cluster::relay_rr
- Cluster::relay_hrw
The idea being that Broker may eventually implement the necessary
routing (plus load balancing) functionality. For now, code that used
these should "manually" handle and re-publish events as needed.
Turns out that base/misc/version.bro did not parse Bro versions
correctly in case the version is just 2.5-12 or similar. This commit
fixes this oversight and adds a few more small testcases.
This adds previously-missing support for "Alter Context"
request/response PDUs (initial patch contributed by Mark Fernandez).
Also, context ID arguments were added to dce_rpc_bind, dce_rpc_request,
and dce_rpc_response in order to properly track what endpoint/operation
a given opnum maps to.
* origin/topic/jsiwek/empty-lines:
Add 'smtp_excessive_pending_cmds' weird
Fix SMTP command string comparisons
Improve handling of empty lines in several text protocol analyzers
Add rate-limiting sampling mechanism for weird events
Teach timestamp canonifier about timestamps before ~2001
The loop over Reducers in SumStats::observe performs a key normalization
and inadvertently modifies the key used for subsequent iterations.
Reported by Jim Mellander.
Now defaults to a max of 4 threads typically indepedent of core
count (previously could go up to a hard cap of 8). Also now allow
controlling this setting via BRO_BROKER_MAX_THREADS environment
variable.
* origin/topic/vern/vec-append:
d'oh, still have a (deprecated) string_array rather than string_vector
forgot to update test suite results for v += e
reap the fruits of v += e
test case for v += e
documentation of v += e
v += e implemented
Fixed a mistake in find_ip_addresses()
* origin/topic/vern/perf-history:
only generate history threshold events for > 1 instance mention those events in NEWS
a different sort of history update
'W' for zero window implemented; logarithmic 'T'/'C'/'W' history repetitions
I reverted a change that made TCP window tracking unconditional (possibly
accepting out-of-order packets) until further verification of test suite
changes.
This updates the "lookup_location" and "lookup_asn" BIFs to use
libmaxminddb. The motivation for this is that MaxMind is discontinuing
GeoLite Legacy databases: no updates after April 1, 2018, no downloads
after January 2, 2019. It's also noted that all GeoIP Legacy databases
may be discontinued as they are superseded by GeoIP2.
The generation of weird events, by default, are now rate-limited
according to these tunable options:
- Weird::sampling_whitelist
- Weird::sampling_threshold
- Weird::sampling_rate
- Weird::sampling_duration
The new get_reporter_stats() BIF also allows one to query the
total number of weirds generated (pre-sampling) which the new
policy/misc/weird-stats.bro script uses periodically to populate
a weird_stats.log.
There's also new reporter BIFs to allow generating weirds from the
script-layer such that they go through the same, internal
rate-limiting/sampling mechanisms:
- Reporter::conn_weird
- Reporter::flow_weird
- Reporter::net_weird
Some of the code was adapted from previous work by Johanna Amann.
