This commit revamps the handling of analyzer violations that happen
before an analyzer confirms the protocol.
The current state is that an analyzer is disabled after 5 violations, if
it has not been confirmed. If it has been confirmed, it is disabled
after a single violation.
The reason for this is a historic mistake. In Zeek up to versions 1.5,
analyzers were unconditianally removed when they raised the first
protocol violation.
When this script was ported to the new layout for Zeek 2.0 in
b4b990cfb5, a logic error was introduced
that caused analyzers to no longer be disabled if they were not
confirmed.
This was the state for ~8 years, till the DPD::max_violations options
was added, which instates the current approach of disabling unconfirmed
analyzers after 5 violations. Sadly, there is not much discussion about
this change - from my hazy memory, I think this was discovered during
performance tests and the new behavior was added without checking into
the history of previous changes.
This commit reinstates the originally intended behavior of DPD. When an
analyzer that has not been confirmed raises a protocol violation, it is
immediately removed from the connection. This also makes a lot of sense
- this allows the analyzer to be in a "tasting" phase at the beginning
of the connection, and to error out quickly once it realizes that it was
attached to a connection not containing the desired protocol.
This change also removes the DPD::max_violations option, as it no longer
serves any purpose after this change. (In practice, the option remains
with an &deprecated warning, but it is no longer used for anything).
There are relatively minimal test-baseline changes due to this; they are
mostly triggered by the removal of the data structure and by less
analyzer errors being thrown, as unconfirmed analyzers are disabled
after the first error.
This reverts part of commit a0888b7e36 due
to inhibiting analyzer violations when parsing non SSH traffic when
the &restofdata path is entered.
@J-Gras reported the analyzer not being disabled when sending HTTP
traffic on port 22.
This adds the verbose analyzer.log baselines such that future improvements
of these scenarios become visible.
