This commit switches UID hashing from md5 to a highway hash. It also
moves the salt value out of the file plugin - and makes it
installation-specific instead - it is moved to the global namespace.
There now are digest hash functions to make "static"
installation-specific hashes that are stable over workers available to
everyone; hashes can be 64, 128 or 256 bits in size.
Due to the fact that we switch the file hashing algorithm, all file
hashes change.
The underlyigng algorithm that is used for hashing is highwayhash-128,
which is significantly faster than md5.
This makes conn.logs a bit prettier (and smaller) because all lines that
do not use a tunnel will now have a "-" instead of the "(empty)" for
tunnel_parents.
This changes the HTTP log format slightly but shouldn't mess
up anything that anyone was doing because the old "filename"
field was never actually filled out. Tests are updated as well.
- Plain text now identified with BOMs for UTF8,16,32
(even though 16 and 32 wouldn't get identified as plain text, oh-well)
- X.509 certificates are now populating files.log with
the mime type application/pkix-cert.
- File signatures are split apart into file types
to help group and organize signatures a bit better.
- Normalized some FILE_ANALYSIS debug messages.
- Improved Javascript detection.
- Improved HTML detection.
- Removed a bunch of bad signatures.
- Merged a bunch of signatures that ultimately detected
the same mime type.
- Added detection for MS LNK files.
- Added detection for cross-domain-policy XML files.
- Added detection for SOAP envelopes.
- Several places were just using old variable names or not loading
scripts correctly after they'd been renamed/moved.
- Revert/adjust a change in how HTTP file handles are generated that
broke partial content responses.
- Turn some libmagic builtin checks back on; seems some are actually
useful (e.g. text detection seems to be a builtin). The rule going
forward probably will be only to turn off a builtin if we confirm it
causes issues.
- Removed some tests that are redundant or not necessary anymore because
the generic file analysis tests cover them.
- A couple FTP tests still fail that I think need an actual solution via
script changes.
http.log now has files taken from request and response bodies in
different fields for each, and can now track multiple files per body.
That is, the "extraction_file" field is now "extracted_request_files"
and "extracted_response_files".
- It's derived from the magic database of libmagic 5.14, but with most
everything not related to mime types removed.
- The custom database is always used by default for mime detection, but
the more verbose file type detection will fall back on the default
libmagic installation's database. The result is: mime type strings
are now guaranteed to be consistent across platforms, but the verbose
file type descriptions are not.
- The custom database gets installed in $prefix/share/bro/magic, and
should even be extensible if files with new patterns are added inside
the directory.
- The search path for the mime magic database can be controlled via
BROMAGIC environment variable.
- Remove mime_desc field from ftp.log.
- Stop using the mime/file type canonifier with unit tests.
- libmagic >= 5.04 is now a requirement.
Other misc:
- Remove HTTP::MD5 notice.
- Add "last_active" field to FileAnalysis::Info record.
- Replace "conn_uids", "conn_ids" fields in FileAnalysis::Info record
with just a "conns" fields containing full connection records.
- The http-methods unit test is failing now, but I think it will be
fixed once I change the file handle callback mechanism to use events
instead.
This option indicates that the Teredo analyzer should wait until
it sees both sides of a connection using a valid Teredo encapsulation
before issuing a protocol_confirmation. Previous behavior confirmed
on the first instance of a valid encapsulation, which could result
in more false positives (and e.g. bogus entries in known-services.log).
Addresses #890.
- Clarify "tunnel_changed" event documentation.
- Make expiration of "Tunnel::active" elements configuration via
"Tunnel::expiration_interval".
- Remove redundant registration of a connection's tunnels in
tunnel/main.bro's "tunnel_changed" handler.
- Rename "parents" field of "Conn::Info" to "tunnel_parents"
to give more context.
These are called "teredo_packet", "teredo_authentication",
"teredo_origin_indication", and "teredo_bubble" and may be raised
on a per-packet basis depending on Teredo encapsulation method.
