      @Asterix:

      As I stated in the my previous post "This disables all the unneeded rules first before enabling the rest of the rules on Snort startup"..

      Sweet,  doing a fresh load on new hardware so very timely too.

      Thanks!

        Thank you Asterix, well done!

        I encountered only to "problems":

        1. if I download a list, it contains a lot of html code (I'm using Firefox v. 50.1.0)

        2. If I download all bunch of lists in gzip, the resulted file is corrupted (unpacking program: WinRAR v. 5.40 64-bit)

        pfSense 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)
        motherboard: MSI C847MS-E33 Micro ATX (with Intel Celeron CPU 847 @ 1.10 GHz) ~ PSU: Corsair VS350 ~ RAM: Kingston KVR1333D3E9S 4096 MB 240-pin DIMM DDR3 SDRAM 1.5 volt ~ NIC: Intel EXPI9301CTBLK (LAN) ~ NIC: D-Link DFE-528TX (CAM) ~ Hard Disk: Western Digital WD10JFCX Red ~ Case: Cooler Master HAF XB ~ power consumption: 21 Watts.

          Not sure what list you are referring to. If you mean the list above, just copy paste it directly into pfSense. https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=56267.msg665288#msg665288

          On another note, after moving to Suricata a couple of days ago I am noticing more FPs which I first suppressed then moved to disablesid.conf. This may be due to the fact that I restructured my entire network from L2 to L3. So pfSense lan now acts just as a transit interface and is servicing clients outside its network (with the help of gateways and static routes).

            I'm talking about the little icon that shows the description "download this SID mods list file"in the SID mgmt section: if you open the downloaded file it's not a text file

              This may a lingering bug from the Bootstrap conversion, or it might be peculiar to Firefox.  Have you another browser to try such as Chrome or Internet Explorer?  If it persists with other browsers, I will look at getting it fixed in the next Snort package update.

              In the meantime, you can download the files outside of the GUI using something like WinSCP on Windows to perform a secure copy (SSH) operation.  The files live in the /var/db/suricata/sidmods directory on the firewall.

                It's the same with Google Chrome; moreover the "Download" button (which is supposed to download all the lists in a single bzip file) generates a corrupted archive.

                  The download button seems to work normally here with Suricata at least. The individual files have HTML crap appended.

                  @bmeeks: You might try something like this, I recall that was working pretty well: https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense-packages/blob/master/config/tftp2/tftp_files.php#L52

                    Thanks!  I will put looking into this problem on todo list for Snort.  This may be caused by some changes to the underlying web server in newer pfSense versions.  I have not touched that particular code in Snort for a very long time (well before the change in the web server engine on the firewall).

                      I'm running into a strange issue when using a disablesid.conf file, contents included below, the SIDs are not being disabled, I still see them triggering alerts, and when I check the rules in the snort interface I see "{$textse}"; " preceding SIDs that were specified in servers-disablesid.conf.  See attachment

                      I've tried removing all of the comments in the conf file and rebuilding without luck.  Has anyone else run into this?

                        I encountered a similar problem with SID Mgmt: it is not disabling rules # 2000419 and # 2018959 (ET POLICY PE EXE or DLL Windows file download); I had to exclude them manually.

                        pfSense 2.3.2-RELEASE-p1 (amd64)
                        motherboard: MSI C847MS-E33 Micro ATX (with Intel Celeron CPU 847 @ 1.10 GHz) ~ PSU: Corsair VS350 ~ RAM: Kingston KVR1333D3E9S 4096 MB 240-pin DIMM DDR3 SDRAM 1.5 volt ~ NIC: Intel EXPI9301CTBLK (LAN) ~ NIC: D-Link DFE-528TX (CAM) ~ Hard Disk: Western Digital WD10JFCX Red ~ Case: Cooler Master HAF XB ~ power consumption: 21 Watts.

                          @Asterix:

                          Here is the simpler list for disablesid.conf. Did a random check and found them disabled. No more suppression list for now.

                          Thanks for the list!

                          I was wondering though, do you have the same list with comments?
                          Just wondering what all has been disabled here…

                            Asterix, thank you for posting your work on the lsit. Nice job!

                            Most Snort recommendations are to make it inward-looking (LAN) instead of outward-looking (WAN). The inward-looking (LAN) configuration allows you to detect misbehaving internal LAN clients. The outward-looking (WAN) configuration might show you some interesting information, but it's not really actionable.

                            Comments?

                              @uptownVagrant:

                              I'm running into a strange issue when using a disablesid.conf file, contents included below, the SIDs are not being disabled, I still see them triggering alerts, and when I check the rules in the snort interface I see "{$textse}"; " preceding SIDs that were specified in servers-disablesid.conf.  See attachment

                              I've tried removing all of the comments in the conf file and rebuilding without luck.  Has anyone else run into this?

                              We had the same issue my friend. Some of the GID and SID defined in SID Mgmt doesn't work. I tested 1 rule 1:2008289 to enable and disable it using the SID Mgmt disable-sid.conf it doesn't change at all.

                                I appreciate the tips, but with a new pfSense and Snort installation, I think I'm still missing something fundamental here: Why are we adding rules like 119:2 — rules marked "not-suspicious" — to the suppression list at all?

                                Unless I'm completely misunderstanding something, this and similar rules are inserted by one of the preprocessors, and have already been annotated as rules that don't on their own imply suspicious traffic when triggered, so why is Snort adding firewall rules when they're triggered? Is there no option to simply have Snort not add firewall rules when traffic triggers a rule marked "not-suspicious"?

                                I ask, because after a couple weeks of running Snort with the default "connectivity" IPS rule set as well as some of the more targeted ET rulesets, the only problems I've had are with rules marked "not-suspicious" or "unknown". It seems like an unnecessary hassle to manually add these rules to a suppression list when they're already marked as something that doesn't directly imply problematic traffic.

                                  Is there an update to this Snort's master suppress list? I'm still getting many false positives even after entering this suppression list. For example, it still blocks many normal websites, such as www.cnn.com. In fact, I added www.cnn.com's IP address in the Pass List but it still blocks the CNN website. Why is this?

                                    Which snort alerts is cnn.com triggering for you? I don't get any, just tried.

                                    Also, you should be able to see which rules are the culprit from the snort alerts.

                                      Here is my current/updated list from disablesid.conf. I switched to suricata last year so your experience with these in snort may vary.

                                        I had some time during the Christmas break and upgraded from 2.3.2 to 2.4.2-RELEASE-p1 and experienced this same problem.  At first it seemed like non-HTTPS sites were affected so I thought it might be a Squid cache issue but then I found I was able to load many other HTTP sites.  It was tough to identify as Snort seemed to continue running for quite a while after being stopped, but it was obvious when I finally looked at the alerts page.  I tried re-installing snort and was unable to get the disablesid list to function.  I also tried redoing this setting and was unsuccessful there as well.  I've added my list to the suppress list for the time being and will leave it there unless I notice performance issues.

                                          I did some awk/sed scripting and added descriptions for most of the disabled SIDs in Asterix' master list above.

                                            Here are some new additions in Suricata. They are still in my suppress list as I give them at least 3 months before considering them to be permanently disabled. Most of these blocked my smartTV from reaching the internet.
