Suricata process dying due to hyperscan problem

paulp

Good news! At least I hope so :)
I changed Pattern Match to AC-BS and for now I see it has been working for about 20 hours.
With the Pattern Matcher Algorithm set to Auto, AC-KS or Hyperscan, Suricata stopped after a few hours on the interfaces that had higher traffic.

@bmeeks said in Suricata process dying due to hyperscan problem:

best workaround for you guys is to select AC-CS (the normal default when Hyperscan is not present

I don't seem to have AC-CS as an option on the routers I've checked?

@SteveITS
Ive read AC-KS is performing well enough.

Maltz

@SteveITS I assumed that was a typo. AC-BS is the only one that works for me.

btspce

AC-BS on two 6100 in CARP/HA makes primary partially hang (after boot when suricata starts) and secondary takes over the interface that suricata was about to start on primary which results in traffic not working at all as primary still thinks it is master for the same interface. Hyperscan coredumps immediately when suricata starts.

SteveITS

@btspce interesting…not seeing that on our 6100 pair. only a boot not a stop/start? (Not sure I restarted again after Suricata install)

btspce

@SteveITS The webgui hangs after install and during the start of suricata or after boot of the 6100 when suricata starts. CPU goes to 80-100% and after about 10 seconds webgui hangs. No more updates. Killing the suricata process and restart php-fpm restores access to webgui where I can see that both primary and secondary firewall is now master for the same interface and no traffic passes.

No issues when running 23.05.1

kiokoman

i never mentioned it here but i'm running on a CARP environment, are we all running on carp or there is people affected without carp?

@kiokoman
Not running CARP here.

Same problems after upgrading to 23.09.1
don't run carp

@lukasz-s,

I'm encountering issues with starting Suricata on one of my PFsense installations, and I'm seeking assistance and sharing my observations with the community.

I currently have two similar setups with High Availability (HA) and CARP configurations, both running as virtual machines in Proxmox. However, one of them is working perfectly on PFsense 2.7.2, while the other encountered issues after updating to the same version.

Working System (referred to as "System A"):

8 Cores (HOST) without NUMA.
16GB of RAM.
Virtio trunk interface with 8 queues.
Two PF VMs running on two nodes within a cluster.
Proxmox hardware with 2 x Xeon(R) Gold 6230 CPUs and 2 dual-port 100GB Mellanox cards.

Non-working System (referred to as "System B"):

6 Cores (HOST) with NUMA.
12GB of RAM.
Dual-port Mellanox 25Gb/s NICs passed through to the PF VM and configured as LAGG.
Two PF VMs running on two nodes within a cluster.
Proxmox hardware with 2 x Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2620.

On November 14th, I upgraded Suricata from version 6.x to 7.0.2 on one of the nodes in System B, while still running PFsense 2.7.0. This upgrade caused the GUI to crash, and I had to restart it from the console. I encountered a PHP error in the log, which I unfortunately don't have access to anymore. After this incident, I was unable to start Suricata on the interface.

Due to time constraints, I reverted to a snapshot to get it running again. During this period, I also tested Suricata installations on other systems for comparison, both with and without HA. Surprisingly, I couldn't reproduce the problem on any of these test systems, all running PFsense 2.7.2. This led me to believe that the issue might have been fixed.

Subsequently, I upgraded System A to PFsense 2.7.2 without any issues with Suricata or other components. However, when I upgraded the backup node of System B, the upgrade completed successfully, but Suricata failed to start once again.

Upon examining the Suricata log file, I found no errors; the last line indicated that it had started. However, the system.log displayed the following entries:

"php-fpm[27588]: Starting Suricata on WAN_GC(lagg0.10) per user request..."
"php[13124]: [Suricata] Updating rules configuration for: WAN_GC ..."
"php[13124]: [Suricata] Enabling any flowbit-required rules for: WAN_GC..."
"php[13124]: [Suricata] Building new sid-msg.map file for WAN_GC..."
"php[13124]: [Suricata] Suricata START for v10(lagg0.10)..."
"kernel: pid 16716 (suricata), jid 0, uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped)"

It appears that Suricata crashes immediately upon startup.

Here are the steps I've taken and my findings:

Uninstalling the Suricata package with the "retain config" option unchecked and reinstalling it did not resolve the issue.
Disabling all rules allowed the interface to start.
Enabling a single rule also allowed it to start, but enabling a different single rule had the same effect. Enabling both prevented Suricata from starting.
Increasing values in "WAN - Flow" and "Stream" did not make a difference.
Trying various settings in the system tunable found in forums had no effect.
Disabling "Block offenders" allowed Suricata to start.
Discovering the issue with hyperscan: Setting "Pattern Matcher Algorithm" to "AC" instead of "Auto" allowed Suricata to start and work with all rules active.
Disabling NUMA in Proxmox did not help.

Both System A and B have very similar configurations, including mostly the same packages, with the main difference being the network interface cards. System B uses a dual 25G Mellanox card passed through, while System A uses a virtio NIC. However, I also attempted to start Suricata on a virtio card in System B, which was not in use, but it also refused to start. Additionally, System A has a newer CPU. System B employs LAGG with multiple VLANs, while System A has its LAGG managed by Proxmox and only sees a single virtio card with a VLAN trunk. System A has 29 VLAN interfaces, while System B has only 12.

Both systems were running Suricata PF pkg 7.0.2_2 and suricata-7.0.2_5, with all other packages up to date.

I have since reverted System B to a previous state, preventing me from conducting further tests. Nevertheless, I hope this information proves useful to the developers in diagnosing and resolving the issue.

Thank you.

SteveITS

@safe

upgraded Suricata from version 6.x to 7.0.2 on one of the nodes in System B, while still running PFsense 2.7.0. This upgrade caused the GUI to crash

It’s mostly expected to have problems if upgrading packages before pfSense versions…need to change your update branch to Previous first. Otherwise it may pull in later libraries etc.

safe

@SteveITS

Thanks. I don't remember exactly what happened back then but the newer version of Suricata was available in the package list, but no new PF-update was listed. I then believed that it belonged to my current PF version. I reverted back to a snapshot, and all was good after then.

The problem I have now, is not related to above, since this time PF was updated to 2.7.2, and Suricata was updated automatically along with it.

SteveITS

@safe yeah there’s a separate bug/issue that hides the upgrade, what fun.

@kiokoman, @masons , and any others wishing to try a debug Suricata version:

Guys, I was finally able to get my pfSense 2.7.2 CE package builder repaired and updated so that I can resume building test packages.

If you would like to try and help isolate and indentify this Hyperscan bug, read on to see how you can assist --

I have produced a debug-enabled version of Suricata 7.0.2. It was compiled for pfSense CE 2.7.2, because that's all I have a builder for. But I suspect it will also load and run okay on pfSense Plus 23.09.1.

You will need to install the debug-enabled package manually using the CLI at a shell prompt on the firewall. You can obtain the shell prompt either directly on the console locally or via a remote SSH connection. Obviously this should be done on a firewall where you are currently experiencing the Hyperscan crash.

This test involves replacing only the binary portion of the Suricata package. The GUI component (pfSense-pkg-suricata-7.0.2_2) will not be altered.

WARNING: you should only try this on a test machine or one that you can quickly recover should something cause a major crash!!

Install the Debug-Enabled Suricata Binary Package

The debug-enabled Suricata binary package file is hosted on my Google Drive account here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10lD0R907A1yQpn-aIewH8_GfPJiuVcIm/view?usp=sharing.

To begin, download the suricata-7.0.2_6.pkg file and transfer it to your firewall placing it in the /root directory. IMPORTANT: make sure you transfer the file in binary (unaltered) form! So, if using WinSCP for the transfer from a Windows PC, choose "Binary" for the transfer type.
Stop all running Suricata instances by executing this command from a shell prompt on the firewall:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/suricata.sh stop

Install the update debug version of the Suricata binary using the command below at a shell prompt on the firewall:

pkg-static install -f /root/suricata-7.0.2_6.pkg

4, If successful, restart Suricata by returning to the GUI and using the icons on the INTERFACES tab, or you can run the following command from the shell prompt:

/usr/local/etc/rc.d/suricata.sh start

If you experience a crash while running this debug build of Suricata, you can quickly grab some useful data by running this command on the core file from a shell prompt:

gdb /usr/local/bin/suricata /root/suricata.core

After it loads, type bt and ENTER to see a back trace. Post the displayed results back here. You can also run bt full to produce a more detailed back trace. When finished, type exit to quit the debugger.

To Restore Your Original Setup

From the GUI, remove the Suricata package. This will remove the GUI package but may not remove the updated debug-enabled binary. The next step insures the debug binary is also removed.
When the package deletion from the GUI completes, exit to a shell prompt and delete the debug version of the binary using this command:

pkg-static delete suricata-7.0.2_6

Now return to the GUI and reinstall Suricata from the SYSTEM > PACKAGE MANAGER menu. This will reinstall the origina Suricata GUI and binary versions from the official pfSense repository.

there is already a debug txt a couple of post before this

I can still try your version and let you know

Sorry, I missed that earlier. It is helpful as it points to a problem somewhere in Hyperscan itself and not so much in the custom blocking module. Curious how things work when the custom blocking module is disabled, though .

Nothing in your back trace results seems to have any relationship to the Legacy Blocking Module.

I was sort of afraid that might happen -- no core dump.

Refresh my memory on your NIC types (real or virtual) and which rule categories you are using. I want to try once more to duplicate the crash. I really should be able to since users are reporting it with a variety of NIC types (real and virtual), so I'm thinking the NIC is not important to the crash.

If you could post your suricata.yaml file for one of the crashing interfaces, that might help as well. I can import it directly into a virtual machine to see if I get the crash then. The file will be in /usr/local/etc/suricata/suricata_xxxx_yyyy/suricata.yaml where the "xxxx" and "yyyy" parts are the physical NIC name and a random UUID. And even better would be also posting the actual active rules file. It will be in /usr/local/etc/suricata/suricata_xxxx_yyyy/rules/suricata.rules.

One other test you can try is changing the Run Mode for Suricata. The default is AutoFP. Try Workers and see if there is any change. Or if already using Workers, swap to AutoFP and test. This parameter is on the INTERFACE SETTINGS tab in the Performance section. Any change made requires Suricata to be restarted so it will see the change.
