Post snort package problems here
-
:) thanks jamesdean your the best

James,
Sorry for not responding the last thread, I have been really busy recently… and it has been successful for me. 8)
I created a repo and pushed a few fixes:
Changes were not be kept if one only enabled or disabled rules. Should fix ToxIcon and addp009 problems
Memory stats displays incorrectly under certain circumstances
Snort may not restart with 'snort.sh restart' from command lineI've just sent a merge request.

Nestorfish

jamesdean when i use the command to enable all snort rules all rules is enable but snort service is disable and wont start
got the error.
snort[10410]: FATAL ERROR: /usr/local/etc/snort/rules/emerging-policy.rules(1467): Bad rule in rules file
snort[10410]: FATAL ERROR: /usr/local/etc/snort/rules/emerging-policy.rules(1467): Bad rule in rules file -
ToxIcon
Post the rule in "/usr/local/etc/snort/rules/emerging-policy.rules" at line 1467

ToxIcon,
Don't bother with it, it will be corrected soon. You won't have to run any perl script in a few hours. :)
Please wait, and maintain your own settings manually for now until the next update… Or disable a natively enabled rule, it should help.

wait a minute.
I added Nestorfish to be able to commit to my clone of mainline. (done)
Add your changes to my clone then I'll add then to the main repository.I'm realy busy at work these next 3 days.
ToxIcon post that rule at that line number.
Might be a bad rule.Hostmaster
50k ant nothing for the great pf.

Just installed the latest Snort package on NanoBSD 1.2.3-RC3 built on Sat Oct 17 22:24:29 UTC 2009 (4GB), but the package doesn't seem to remount root filesystem to rw before saving and updating rules. Updating rules gives the following error:
Warning: mkdir(/root/snort_rules_up): Read-only file system in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 186 Warning: fopen(/root/snort_rules_up/snortrules-snapshot-2.8.tar.gz.md5): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 202 Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 203 Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 204 Warning: fopen(/root/snort_rules_up/pfsense_rules.tar.gz.md5): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 229 Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 230 Warning: fclose(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 231 Warning: filesize(): Stat failed for /root/snort_rules_up/snortrules-snapshot-2.8.tar.gz.md5 (errno=2 - No such file or directory) in /usr/local/www/snort_download_rules.php on line 240Running 'Save' from the Settings tab gives the following (even with root manually mounted rw, it probably remounts to ro at some point):

I have a free afternoon trying to redo the snort interface so that every interface has its own settings and rules but, you guys
keep bothering me ;)churchmedic
give me the output of
cat /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf
not sure why - never got a notice on this thread - came back looking …

Your snort.conf is being built wrong.
portvar SMTP_PORTS [25, 587, 465]
The above line should have no spaces like the error says. Your custom SMTP ports should be changed to look like this.
25,587,465

Perfect for the last fix - thats awesome.
I am however also getting issues when trying to see the blocked ip'sFatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 74957108 bytes) in /usr/local/pkg/snort.inc on line 1488
This package is awesome compared to where it was :-) awesome stuff !

I'm having an issue with snort on both my pfSense boxes and I'm not sure how to resolve it or if it's an issue with the current build. I'm running 1.2.3-rc3 with the latest build of snort.
I can not access the blocked address page and I seem to be having an issue with snort blocking internal traffic out as well as traffic in that should not be blocked. Road warriors are getting blocked when trying to access PPTP, FTP users are getting blocked and the internal mail server seems to be having it's DNS requests blocked. I've tried disabling rules that didn't apply to our setup, but it doesn't seem to be helping.
I'm not sure where to go from here, but if anyone needs any info that might be useful please let me know and I'll post. Thanks for any help anyone can give.

netmethods
Are you using snorts white list to protect ips you do not want to block ?
James
-
yes, but it seems to be blocking IP's that should not be being blocked. For example, getting random emails from outside people or my internal mail server being blocked from sending out. Snort is set to listen to the WAN interface.

netmethods
Can you see if the file /var/db/whitelist has all the ips you want to protect.
James
-
If I add an IP to the whitelist, it will work. The problem is that one site has 150 employee's and the other has 60 or so, so they are emailing to all types of companies all over the world. It would be impossible to know all the IP's without having them be blocked first. Shouldn't snort only block IP's that are actually violating a rule?
-
Ahh got it, post the Alert in full that is giving you the problem.
We will use thresholding to solve your problem.
Heres an example http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php/topic,20137.0.html.
James
-
I'm not sure what rules are being triggered, I'll have to install it and see what I can do to get something to show up in the logs. I've tried disabling the rules that didn't apply to our setup, but haven't had any luck with that so far. This will probably have to wait until the weekend, as I can't afford any additional downtime and I don't have a way to replicate this in a test environment.
Thanks for the help with this.

Hi,
On my pfsense system snort fails to start after an automatic rules update. However it will start correctly after a manual rules update from web conf. Any suggestions? Something to do with the crontab entry?
syslog:

The restart script works perfectly, when running as root from shell. If I try to run it as a cronjob, it seems that "start_service("snort")" function doesn't work correctly with cron.Edit2:
Ok, found the problem and fixed it by myself. "snort.inc" should have full paths to snort and barnyard2 binaries in $start variable.Before:
$start .= "snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -D -i {$snortIf} -q\n"; $start .= "\nsleep 4;barnyard2 -c /usr/local/etc/barnyard2.conf -d /var/log/snort -f snort.u2 -w /usr/local/etc/snort/barnyard2.waldo -D -q\n";After:
$start .= "/usr/local/bin/snort -c /usr/local/etc/snort/snort.conf -l /var/log/snort -D -i {$snortIf} -q\n"; $start .= "\nsleep 4;/usr/local/bin/barnyard2 -c /usr/local/etc/barnyard2.conf -d /var/log/snort -f snort.u2 -w /usr/local/etc/snort/barnyard2.waldo -D -q\n";You can find those on lines 149 and 153 in "snort.inc".
-
Updated the snort package so full paths to binaries are in snort.inc.
