The extension mechanism is basically the one that Seth introduced with
his intel extensions. The main difference lies in using a hook instead
of an event. An example policy implements whitelisting.
The problem is that with certain compilers, the order of the file hash
events is reversed (for at this moment unknown reasons).
This fix simply removes all MD5 events from the dump-events test, only
leaving the SHA1 events. This removes this condition during the test.
- Some scripts used wrong SSH module/namespace scoping on events.
- Fix outdated notice documentation related to SSH password guessing.
- Add a unit test for SSH pasword guessing notice.

and still use the hash for notice suppression.
add knob to revert to old validation behavior
Update certificate validation script - new version will cache valid intermediate chains that it encounters on the wire and use those to try to validate chains that might be missing intermediate certificates.
BIT-1332 #merged
intermediate chains that it encounters on the wire and use those to try
to validate chains that might be missing intermediate certificates.
This vastly improves the number of certificates that Bro can validate.
The only drawback is that now validation behavior is not entirely
predictable anymore - the certificate of a server can fail to validate
when Bro just started up (due to the intermediate missing), and succeed
later, when the intermediate can be found in the cache.
Has been tested on big-ish clusters and should not introduce any
performance problems.
ssl connections with old versions as well as unsafe cipher suites.
Also make the notice suppression handling of other ssl policy files
a tad more robust.
Now the right signer certificate for the reply is looked up (and no longer assumed that it is the first one) and a few compares are fixed. Plus - there are more test cases that partially send certificates in the ocsp message and partially do not - and it seems to work fine in all cases.
Addresses BIT-1212
This also fixes the heartbleed detector to work for encrypted attacks in this
branch again. It stopped working, because the SSL analyzer now successfully detects
established connections, and the scripts usually disable analyzing after that.
(The heartbeat branch should not have been affected)
The scope of dns.log is now only standard queries (OPCODE == 0). Other
kinds of queries (e.g. inverse query) were not handled correctly and
could interfere with the state tracking of the default DNS scripts.
Changes:
- Changing semantics of the new_event() meta event: it's raised
only for events that have a handler defined. There are too many
checks in Bro that prevent events wo/ handler from being even
prepared to raise to do that differently.
- Adding test case.
* topic/robin/event-dumper:
New script misc/dump-events.bro, along with core support, that dumps events Bro is raising in an easily readable form.
Prettyfing Describe() for record types.
