Bound the per-file-transaction OOO queue, mirroring SMB: add
max-{read,write}-queue-{size,cnt} (0 disables, default 64 MiB / 64),
raise a queue event on overflow, and skip the truncated record's
remainder from the stream.
Ticket: #8791.
SWF depth settings were previously limited only to values representable by
uint32_t. This is not sufficient for the buffer-size calculations performed
during SWF decompression.
The decompressed output requires an additional 8-byte FWS header. The
inspection buffer also grows by doubling a uint32_t size, so a required buffer
larger than 2 GiB can cause the growth calculation to wrap.
For LZMA input, a synthesized 13-byte header to the compressed
data is used. The configured compressed-data limit must leave room for this header.
This patch applies the following upper limits:
- decompress-depth: 2147483640 bytes
(2 GiB minus the 8-byte FWS header)
- compress-depth: 4294967282 bytes
(UINT32_MAX minus the 13-byte LZMA header
Ticket: #8914
SWF FileLength was used to determine the decompressed buffer size when
decompress-depth is set to zero, but this field can be manipulated and it can
lead to evasion.
This patch treat FileLength as metadata, the length bytes are just copied, and
when decompress-depth is set to 0, a maximum value of 50MB is considered for
the decompressed buffer.

Adds a configurable limit to string lengths to avoid to retain
too much memory for too long, and avoid producing log events
that are too big
Ticket: 8592
Fixes: 5ddd808e9b ("ftp: don't halt the flow when raising
too_many_transactions")
In the case we receive a big chunk of TCP data, we end up
creating much more than max-tx transactions, and have
quadratic complexity on this packet, even if all
these transactions get cleaned up at the end of the processing
of this packet.
If the key `app-layer.protocols.PROTO.enabled` is present, the protocol
is enabled for all carrier protocols. This is not ideal.
Only if the key `app-layer.protocols.PROTO.enabled` is missing, an
attempt is made to look for a setting specific to the ipproto passed
at the time of registration e.g.
`app-layer.protocols.PROTO.udp.enabled`.
By default, check for carrier proto specific setting. If it is not
found, then fall back to the generic setting.
Issue a warning in case an inconsistent combination of global and
ipproto specific setting is found.
Bug 8205
Add support for two VXLAN reserved bits check modes:
- strict: validate all reserved bits for standard VXLAN format
- permissive: skip all reserved bits validation (allows extensions)
Configuration added to suricata.yaml.in with 'strict' as default.
Includes comprehensive unit tests and documentation updates.
Ticket: 7753
Added a page that explains how rules are prioritized by Suri, as well
as what main different types of inspection happen and what elements are
involved when ordering rules.
Task #5449
Explain briefly the internals of inspection of raw data in the following order:
- Stream Engine
- Stream reassembly
- Role of Detection Engine and Applayer Parsers
- High level communication between Stream and Detection Engine
- Relevant suricata.yaml settings
alongwith some diagrams.
Ticket 4351
Using the new configuration format, it is now possible to set CPU affinity
settings per interface.
The threading.autopin option has been added to automatically use CPUs from the
same NUMA node as the interface. The autopin option requires
hwloc-devel / hwloc-dev to be installed and --enable-hwloc flag in configure
script.
Ticket: 7036
Provide backward compatibility with the previous configuration
format to allow smooth transition to the new format.
The commit adds docs about the new format and the introduced changes.
Add an optional bpf filter to pcap-log. If set, packets must match the
filter to be logged, otherwise they will be ignored.
This allows a user to limit what is logged to disk if they have pcap-log
enabled, but still inspect all data captured.
Ticket: #6832
Decouple app.protocols.tls.encryption-handling and stream.bypass.
There's no apparent reason why encrypted TLS bypass traffic should
depend on stream bypass, as these are unrelated features.
Ticket: 6788
The default value for TLS encryption is generic and not precise.
The new keyword, "track-only" substitues the old keyword, being
more on point what action is actually taken when the TLS flow
reaches an encrypted state.
When running in non-forwarding (IDS) mode, it is not required
to create TX queues for the interface.
This can be acheived by setting tx-descriptors configuration
field to 0.
Ticket: 7633
ICE card (Intel E810) was not receiving packets immediatelly
after startup, Suricata workers would act as processing while
it was not. This eliminates the problem by only continuing
in the initialization if the link is already up.
The setting can be turned off manually from the configuraiton
file.
Ticket: 7381
It turned out that having global (interface-specific) mempool
that is shared by the threads of the interface is slower than
having individual mempools per queue for each interface.
The commit brings this change and should be user-invisible,
the config setting remains still as a number of objects of
all mempools summed (of that interface).
Ticket: 7382
If a Suricata inline IPS device is routing traffic over a
non-encrypted tunnel, like IPv6 tunnels, packets in a flow
will be dropped and not be matched. e.g.
The following example is a Suricata inline IPS with an IPv6 tunnel:
request: IPv4]ICMP] -> |IPS| -> IPv6]IPv4]ICMP]
reply: <- |IPS| <- IPv6]IPv4]ICMP]
Both the IPv4 request and IPv6 reply will be seen by Suricata on
ingress. The flows will not be matched due to flow recursion level.
Optionally use pkt recursion level in flow hash. Excluding recursion
level in flow hash allows matching of packet flows and defrag on an
inline IPS Suricata scenario where the IPS device is a tunnel
terminator.
Feature: 6260
Ticket: 7191
So as to avoid quadratic complexity in libhtp.
Make the limit configurable from suricata.yaml,
and have an event when network traffic goes over the limit.
Use sed + regex to replace all occurrences of suricata.yaml terms that
used underscore for their up-to-date dash version.
Also search for such terms in the eve-log.yaml partials file, as that
is referenced in the configuration section.
commands used:
sed -i 's/\(^ *[a-z]*\)_\([a-z]*:\)/\1-\2/g'
sed -i 's/\(^ *[a-z]*\)_\([a-z]*\)_\([a-z]*:\)/\1-\2-\3/g'
Some other instances were found manually.
Task #7260
If a stream-only rule matches, and we find a tx where we
want to log the app-layer data, store into the tx data that
we already logged, so that we do not log again the app-layer metadata
