- Default extraction limit of 100MB now provided via a tuning script
loaded in local.bro so that command-line Bro is unlimited by default.
- Extraction directory is now created on request of file extraction
rather than unconditionally in bro_init().
- Fix examples/references in the file analysis how-to/usage doc.
- Add Broxygen-generated docs for file analyzer plugins.
- Break FTP::Info type declaration out in to its own file to get
rid of some circular dependencies (between s/b/p/ftp/main and
s/b/p/ftp/utils).
- Large rework on packet filter framework to make many things easier.
- Removed the PacketFilter::all_packets variable because it was confusing.
- New variable (PacketFilter::enable_auto_protocol_capture_filters) to re-enable the old filtering model of only sniffing ports for analyzed protocols.
- In progress plugin model for adding filtering mechanisms.
- New default single item for capture_filters = { ["default"] = PacketFilter::default_capture_filter };
- Mechanism and helper functions to "shunt" traffic with filters.
- Created the Protocols framework to assist with reworking how base protocol scripts are registered with DPD and other things.
- Protocols framework creates BPF filters for registered analyzers. (if using PacketFilter framework in that mode).
- New script extracted from weird.bro to implement the
connection related "weird" data into an optionally
loaded script.
- Adjusted the default notice tuning to stop ignoring
the connection related weirds since they aren't loaded
by default anymore.
- Log path's are generated in the scripting land
now. The default Log stream ID to path string
mapping works like this:
- Notice::LOG -> "notice"
- Notice::POLICY_LOG -> "notice_policy"
- TestModule::LOG -> "test_module"
- Logging streams updated across all of the shipped
scripts to be more user friendly. Instead of
the logging stream ID HTTP::HTTP, we now have
HTTP::LOG, etc.
- The priorities on some bro_init handlers have
been adjusted to make the process of applying
filters or disabling streams easier for users.
- policy/ renamed to scripts/
- By default BROPATH now contains:
- scripts/
- scripts/policy
- scripts/site
- *Nearly* all tests pass.
- All of scripts/base/ is loaded by main.cc
- Can be disabled by setting $BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS
- Scripts in scripts/base/ don't use relative path loading to ease use of BRO_NO_BASE_SCRIPTS (to copy and paste that script).
- The scripts in scripts/base/protocols/ only (or soon will only) do logging and state building.
- The scripts in scripts/base/frameworks/ add functionality without causing any additional overhead.
- All "detection" activity happens through scripts in scripts/policy/.
- Communications framework modified temporarily to need an environment variable to actually enable (ENABLE_COMMUNICATION=1)
- This is so the communications framework can be loaded as part
of the base without causing trouble when it's not needed.
- This will be removed once a resolution to ticket #540 is reached.
