On an unknown app-layer event, return -3 for "silent OK fail". A
warning will still be emitted, but its not considered a rule parse
error. This is to handle app-layer events being removed in a more
graceful manner for the user.
This allows -T to pass with an old app-layer events rule file
that may used removed app-layer event keywords.
When a TCP session is picked up from the response the flow is
reversed by the protocol detection code.
This would lead to duplicate logging of the response. The reason this
happened was that the per stream app progress tracker was not handled
correctly by the direction reversing code. While the streams were
swapped the stream engine would continue to use a now outdated pointer
to what had become the wrong direction.
This patches fixes this by making the stream a ptr to ptr that can be
updated by the protocol detection as well.
In addition, the progress tracking was cleaned up and the GAP error
handling in this case was improved as well.
This changeset makes changes to the TX logging path. Since the txn
is passed to the TX logger, the TX can be used directly instead of
through the TX id.
During the inspection phase actually is not possible to catch
an error if it occurs.
This patch permits to store events in the detection engine
such that we can match on events and catch them.
Use per tx detect_flags to track prefilter. Detect flags are used for 2
things:
1. marking tx as fully inspected
2. tracking already run prefilter (incl mpm) engines
This supercedes the MpmIDs API for directionless tracking
of the prefilter engines.
When we have no SGH we have to flag the txs that are 'complete'
as inspected as well.
Special handling for the stream engine:
If a rule mixes TX inspection and STREAM inspection, we can encounter
the case where the rule is evaluated against multiple transactions
during a single inspection run. As the stream data is exactly the same
for each of those runs, it's wasteful to rerun inspection of the stream
portion of the rule.
This patch enables caching of the stream 'inspect engine' result in
the local 'RuleMatchCandidateTx' array. This is valid only during the
live of a single inspection run.
Remove stateful inspection from 'mask' (SignatureMask). The mask wasn't
used in most cases for those rules anyway, as there we rely on the
prefilter. Add a alproto check to catch the remaining cases.
When building the active non-mpm/non-prefilter list check not just
the mask, but also the alproto. This especially helps stateful rules
with negated mpm.
Simplify AppLayerParserHasDecoderEvents usage in detection to only
return true if protocol detection events are set. Other detection is done
in inspect engines.
Move rule group lookup and handling into it's own function. Handle
'post lookup' tasks immediately, instead of after the first detect
run. The tasks were independent of the initial detection.
Many cleanups and much refactoring.
Set flags by default:
-Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations
-Wstrict-prototypes
-Wwrite-strings
-Wcast-align
-Wbad-function-cast
-Wformat-security
-Wno-format-nonliteral
-Wmissing-format-attribute
-funsigned-char
Fix minor compiler warnings for these new flags on gcc and clang.
If the app-layer-parsing has a very long content it exceeds the maximum
defined in "alproto_name". This adds a check for the too long content
before it will be passed to "strlcpy" and logs an error.
Move engine and registration into the keyword file.
Register as 'ALPROTO_UNKNOWN' instead of per alproto. The
registration will only apply it to those rules that have
events set.
The Match functions don't need a pointer to the SigMatch object, just the
context pointer contained inside, so pass the Context to the Match function
rather than the SigMatch object. This allows for further optimization.
Change SigMatch->ctx to have type SigMatchCtx* rather than void* for better
type checking. This requires adding type casts when using or assigning it.
The SigMatch contex should not be changed by the Match() funciton, so pass it
as a const SigMatchCtx*.
This is an intrusive change. This patch modifies the way AMATCH
inspection uses locking.
So far, each keyword did it's own locking. This lead to a situation
where a 'alstate' pointer was passed around that was not always
protected by a lock.
This patch moves the locking to the Stateful detection functions.
If the protocol is disabled, app-layer-event would print a cryptic
error message. This patch makes sure we inform the user the protocol
is in fact disabled.
To be able to register counters from AppLayerGetCtxThread, the
ThreadVars pointer needs to be available in it and thus in it's
callers:
- AppLayerGetCtxThread
- DecodeThreadVarsAlloc
- StreamTcpReassembleInitThreadCtx
app-layer.[ch], app-layer-detect-proto.[ch] and app-layer-parser.[ch].
Things addressed in this commit:
- Brings out a proper separation between protocol detection phase and the
parser phase.
- The dns app layer now is registered such that we don't use "dnstcp" and
"dnsudp" in the rules. A user who previously wrote a rule like this -
"alert dnstcp....." or
"alert dnsudp....."
would now have to use,
alert dns (ipproto:tcp;) or
alert udp (app-layer-protocol:dns;) or
alert ip (ipproto:udp; app-layer-protocol:dns;)
The same rules extend to other another such protocol, dcerpc.
- The app layer parser api now takes in the ipproto while registering
callbacks.
- The app inspection/detection engine also takes an ipproto.
- All app layer parser functions now take direction as STREAM_TOSERVER or
STREAM_TOCLIENT, as opposed to 0 or 1, which was taken by some of the
functions.
- FlowInitialize() and FlowRecycle() now resets proto to 0. This is
needed by unittests, which would try to clean the flow, and that would
call the api, AppLayerParserCleanupParserState(), which would try to
clean the app state, but the app layer now needs an ipproto to figure
out which api to internally call to clean the state, and if the ipproto
is 0, it would return without trying to clean the state.
- A lot of unittests are now updated where if they are using a flow and
they need to use the app layer, we would set a flow ipproto.
- The "app-layer" section in the yaml conf has also been updated as well.
When handling error case on SCMallog, SCCalloc or SCStrdup
we are in an unlikely case. This patch adds the unlikely()
expression to indicate this to gcc.
This patch has been obtained via coccinelle. The transformation
is the following:
@istested@
identifier x;
statement S1;
identifier func =~ "(SCMalloc|SCStrdup|SCCalloc)";
@@
x = func(...)
... when != x
- if (x == NULL) S1
+ if (unlikely(x == NULL)) S1
