- 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.
The notable difference here is that ftp.log now logs by default
the PORT, PASV, EPRT, EPSV commands as well as a separate line for
ftp-data channels in which file extraction was requested.
This difference isn't a direct result of now doing the file extraction
through the file analysis framework, it's just because I noticed even
the old way of tracking extracted-file name didn't work right and this
was the way I came up with so that a locally extracted file can be
associated with a data channel and then that data channel associated
with a control channel.
- 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.
conn.log now sets a field indicating all the parent tunnel UIDs over
which a connection operated and cross reference the UIDs found in
the tunnel.log.
Also some renaming of tunnel related types at the scripting layer.
