File Keywords
=============
Suricata comes with several rule keywords to match on various file
properties. They depend on properly configured
:doc:`../file-extraction/file-extraction`.
filename
--------
Matches on the file name.
Syntax::
filename:<string>;
Example::
filename:"secret";
fileext
-------
Matches on the extension of a file name.
Syntax::
fileext:<string>;
Example::
fileext:"jpg";
filemagic
---------
Matches on the information libmagic returns about a file.
Syntax::
filemagic:<string>;
Example::
filemagic:"executable for MS Windows";
Note: as libmagic versions differ between installations, the returned
information may also slightly change. See also #437.
filestore
---------
Stores files to disk if the signature matched.
Syntax::
filestore:<direction>,<scope>;
direction can be:
* request/to_server: store a file in the request / to_server direction
* response/to_client: store a file in the response / to_client direction
* both: store both directions
scope can be:
* file: only store the matching file (for filename,fileext,filemagic matches)
* tx: store all files from the matching HTTP transaction
* ssn/flow: store all files from the TCP session/flow.
If direction and scope are omitted, the direction will be the same as
the rule and the scope will be per file.
filemd5
-------
Match file :ref:`MD5 <md5>` against list of MD5 checksums.
Syntax::
filemd5:[!]filename;
The filename is expanded to include the rule dir. In the default case
it will become /etc/suricata/rules/filename. Use the exclamation mark
to get a negated match. This allows for white listing.
Examples::
filemd5:md5-blacklist;
filemd5:!md5-whitelist;
*File format*
The file format is simple. It's a text file with a single md5 per
line, at the start of the line, in hex notation. If there is extra
info on the line it is ignored.
Output from md5sum is fine::
2f8d0355f0032c3e6311c6408d7c2dc2 util-path.c
b9cf5cf347a70e02fde975fc4e117760 util-pidfile.c
02aaa6c3f4dbae65f5889eeb8f2bbb8d util-pool.c
dd5fc1ee7f2f96b5f12d1a854007a818 util-print.c
Just MD5's are good as well::
2f8d0355f0032c3e6311c6408d7c2dc2
b9cf5cf347a70e02fde975fc4e117760
02aaa6c3f4dbae65f5889eeb8f2bbb8d
dd5fc1ee7f2f96b5f12d1a854007a818
*Memory requirements*
Each MD5 uses 16 bytes of memory. 20 Million MD5's use about 310 MiB of memory.

filesize
--------
Match on the size of the file as it is being transferred.
Syntax::
filesize:<value>;
Examples::
filesize:100; # exactly 100 bytes
filesize:100<>200; # greater than 100 and smaller than 200
filesize:>100; # greater than 100
filesize:<100; # smaller than 100
**Note**: For files that are not completely tracked because of packet
loss or stream.depth being reached on the "greater than" is
checked. This is because Suricata can know a file is bigger than a
value (it has seen some of it already), but it can't know if the final
size would have been within a range, an exact value or smaller than a
value.
