FYI the following being enabled kept the WAN interface from turning on.
It will show enabled, but it will have that red X next to it and it refused to start.
After troubleshooting, I narrowed it down to this very specific rule (which you need to add to your exception list)2011695 ET WEB_CLIENT Possible Microsoft Internet Explorer Dynamic Object Tag/URLMON Sniffing Cross Domain Information Disclosure Attempt Disclosure Attempt
If I disable that, then the WAN interface is able to show the green play button (running) without issue.

Yes, there is apparently an issue with that specific rule in the ET OPEN rule set package. I think it throws an error when Snort's pcre (Perl-compatible regular expression) engine tries to decode the content part of the rule. This is an error the ET OPEN rule authors will need to fix. It is a not something directly related to the Snort package.

I installed the new Snort package and it looks like you're pulling the compromised IPs .txt file from ETPro automatically during rules updates. Very cool! 8)
Yes, since the file is there in the ET OPEN and ET PRO rules packages, the new code for the IP Reputation preprocessor grabs and stores it for use if enabled by the user.

IMPORTANT!!!
I'm in the middle of transitioning to a different blacklist management, but for now the pfblocker lists will remain here since I don't have the time to update that part of the guide. Thanks to BBcan17 for his help with the blacklists.
This update brings a couple dozen no longer needed rules, and I have now started adding an explanation of why I deleted a certain rule next to it, after <<<
Enjoy.

I have a quick question about mechanics of what exactly this rule is detecting.
@jflsakfja:
2017015 ET POLICY DropBox User Content Access over SSL
The source IP is an AWS address. The source port is 443. The destination IP is a local computer that does not (or should not) have drop box installed. The destination port is in 15-thousands (15067, 15068).
What is triggering this rule? Would simply clicking on a link, to download a file in web browser, or accessing a page with hot-linked https dropbox content, allow the AWS hosted computer to send traffic back on a port already opened by the browser? Or is this an indication of a secret drop box client installed by a hacker, and then used to send payload to the compromised computer?
Could it be one, or another, or both?
Thank you.

This is the rule
alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET 443 -> $HOME_NET any (msg:"ET POLICY DropBox User Content Access over SSL"; flow:established,from_server; content:"|55 04 03|"; content:"|18|*.dropboxusercontent.com"; nocase; distance:1; within:25; reference:url,www.dropbox.com/help/201/en; classtype:policy-violation; sid:2017015; rev:6;)
This is the reference URL in the rule https://www.dropbox.com/help/201/en which doesn't say too much.
There is a lot of Crap on AWS. I found the following reference -
"Data uploaded by the Dropbox client software is also encrypted before it is uploaded to Dropbox servers. Dropbox stores files on Amazon's S3 service. The company encrypts files with 256-bit AES before transmitting them to Amazon's servers via an SSL connection. However, Dropbox employees can decrypt these files, as can the Dropbox system."
Maybe posting on the Snort forum would get the right information for this type of question.

In addition to what user BBcan177 stated and provided above with regards to this alert, my guess is a client computer on your network clicked on a web link that downloads Dropbox content. You do not have to have the Dropbox client installed to download and view someone else's content. I don't have Dropbox on my LAN, but my family has sent me links to photos hosted on their Dropbox accounts. So my bet is one of your LAN users clicked a link in an e-mail or even a web page that then connects via https:// to Dropbox to grab the content. The Snort rule is simply alerting on that action.

Thank you for the explanation. I appreciate it. It seems somewhat counter-intuitive to me that Snort would ignore the outgoing request for the prohibited resource, and only catch it on the way back, when the remote server starts transmitting to the local port.
I have much to learn about Snort.

Warning: This post may contain rage directed at the snort/suricata rule writers. It does NOT contain rage directed at any of the poor souls trying to make a usable product of the mess that is The Rules.
And rule writers have an order of magnitude more than you to learn about writing rules and/or using snort. (translation-and-a-fact-actually:MOST rule writers have no idea what a rule is and what a rule does)
Snippet from the upcoming blueprint for suricata:
2010228 ET POLICY Suspicious Microsoft Windows NT 6.1 User-Agent Detected <<< so WTF is windows 7 then???Since nobody on the entire internet reads this topic, that brutal FP rule will never be corrected. Trillions upon quadrillions of man hours will be wasted to disable that rule, after thousands upon thousands of debates on whether Windows 7 is version 7 or version 6 (hint:it's 6.1 and the rule fires up after a clean install's first time updates).
The Golden Standards for Rule Writing
- Rules should detect what they are designed to detect (most rules actually do this)
- A rule to detect a successful ftp login is not only idiotic, it's an insult of my intelligence. Applies to apt-get rule as well.
- A rule set up on an abacus then carried over to snort should REALLY be dropped. No arguments, no what-ifs, no think-of-the-children, no terrorism (includes cyberterrorism). Just build up the courage and delete old rules already. Nobody needs them.
Most rules meet only point 1. There are exceptions of course.
I'll be updating this topic for the last time in the coming days. After that, the suricata blueprint will take over.Note to those that say "ZOMG!!!oneeleven WHAT ABOUT DETECTING WINDOWS 7 WHEN YOU ARE ON AN ALL LINUX NETWORK????".
- THERE IS NOTHING SUSPICIOUS ABOUT A VALID WINDOWS RELEASE! (other than the three-letter-agencies backdoors of course)
- If you don't know what os each host runs, please consider a career change.
- If a host whose OS you don't know managed to get on "The Internet", then you have bigger problems. Please see 2.

First off, thank you for your efforts in this thread, I have found it most useful and the more I understand about it, most clever in its use and implementation of pfSense/pfBlocker/Snort as a system
I don't know that this is a question or just a curiosity… what I have read, questioned and talked to friends about in the Snort/Suricata debate, points to the big advantage of Suricata is its true "inline" functionality. At this time, it is my understanding that this true "inline" functionality can not be invoked under pfSense due to changes needed in pfSense itself. Given those two pieces of the puzzle, what would be the impetus for moving to Suricata "at this time"?
To further obfuscate the curiosity, the Snort fanboys insist that by the time pfSense gets "fixed" for the inline functionality that Snort will be updated to also offer this ability. My question then was whether an inline Snort would also require its own pfSense core change?… to which I got blank stares and silence.

The outgoing request from your LAN client may well not contain all the "triggers" needed by the rule. Only the data coming back contained everything necessary (and in the right order) to trigger the rule.

There are (well, actually, "will be") two ways to implement in-line mode in Snort and Suricata. One utilizes ipfw. This is the part of pfSense that today does not fully function in IPS mode. It's also the mode, that even if fixed to work, will still offer very poor performance throughput due to the swaps back and forth between kernel space and user land for packets. The other mechanism that really offers promise is Netmap. This is now part of FreeBSD 10, and I assume (but have not verified) it is in pfSense 2.2. There is a feature request that is currently showing as 50% complete in the Suricata source tree to add a Netmap API module so that Suricata can use it. I'm not sure why the feature is not 100% finished yet.
Back to Snort. Snort's DAQ module that does all the packet acquisition can utilize ipfw on BSD systems to do in-line drops. I have not seen anything about Netmap support in Snort yet, though. Somebody may be contemplating it, but I did not see any links in my initial searches.
So to summarize – the ideal way forward is to use the Netmap support in FreeBSD 10 as the architecture for implementing inline IPS in Suricata (and maybe even Snort). However, we are now in a waiting game while those two upstream source trees fully incorporate Netmap support. In my view, ipfw is probably a lost cause due first to the potential performance issues, and second to the fact it would have to be updated in the pfSense code in order to work correctly.
As to liking Suricata over Snort (or vice-versa), that is really mostly personal preference at this time. Maybe if Suricata gets full Netmap support and Snort does not, then the choice becomes more clear cut.

Snort inline is dead. Any hope of resurrecting the project (coming from die hard snort fans, companies funneling trillions of $ into snort inline, fanbois, not related passers by) is nothing more than a hope. As an added nail in snort inline's coffin is that pretty much all development for it has stopped when suricata was born, since most (all?) developers (wrt inline) moved over to that project.
Just to put it in plain sight: snort inline is DEAD. Any future posts mentioning snort inline should be accompanied by "R.I.P. snort inline". If you want that functionality, migrate to suricata. As for all the (inevitably) coming [citation needed] posts, I'm not the one saying snort inline is dead, migrate to suricata. It's actually snort inline's site. Here I'll make everybody's life easier: http://snort-inline.sourceforge.net/
Right now the best course forward is to work as much as we can to get suricata fully functional under pfsense. Even if the inline part doesn't get implemented for another 40 years, the foundations will be there when it does. I know this will upset everybody related to snort, but now that cisco has taken over snort, I'm waiting for the announcement that snort will no longer be supported any day now. Maybe tomorrow. Maybe the day after that. Maybe next week. It WILL be here eventually.

This is the final rule post in this topic. Moving forward, the rules will be found in the suricata topic, which I'll create in a couple of days. I strongly advise all to move to suricata and stop using snort.

@jflsakfja:
This is the final rule post in this topic. Moving forward, the rules will be found in the suricata topic, which I'll create in a couple of days. I strongly advise all to move to suricata and stop using snort.
I am somewhat of a fan of your writing style ever since I discovered you and I speak the same secret agents stuff (update, btw, the yellow cat is in the bathroom, I repeat: rain is expected this summer :P )
;D
Anyhow, I do appreciate very much what you are doing for us all, and I've followed most of what you've written here. I even like your rants ;D
But:
It is not quite clear why you write the part in bold in the above quote. Yes, I've read 'snort-inline is dead' (whatever that means precisely :-[ ), but Bmeeks writes above that he is not particularly advocating the one over the other right now (Snort/Suricata).
So, my dear ranting man who knows secret stuffs ( ;D ): could I persuade you to write a little bit more about why move to Suricata [b]right now?
Thank you,
Bye,

There is one area, for home users, where Snort currently still has an edge. That edge is the affordability of "current" rules updates. For Snort VRT rules, the cost is $29.99 USD per year. For Emerging Threats, you have to go with ET-PRO and I think that is close to $500 USD per year. Last time I checked, the ET folks did not have a home-user level of subscription. Suricata will not process all of the Snort VRT rules because some of them have rule option keywords that only Snort recognizes and processes. So for those folks who maintain a Snort VRT subscription but use the rules on Suricata, be aware that not all of the rules will actually inspect traffic. Make sure you always look in the suricata.log file on the LOGS BROWSER tab to see what (if any) Snort rules Suricata choked on and skipped loading.
Both vendors (Snort VRT and Emerging Threats) offer free rules updates, but those are 30-day old rules at best. And for ET, I think some of their more advanced malware and Trojan rules may never make it into the free updates.
Performance wise Snort and Suricata on pfSense are pretty evenly matched as of now. And for use in a commercial environment where you are subscribing to either Snort VRT updates or Emerging Threats PRO updates, there is really no huge difference in protection.

"Emerging Threats" had a deal (if you call it a deal) for the ET PRO ruleset at ~$300 awhile back? Not sure if its still available.
Jflsakfja's Blueprint for ET will be the same for either Snort or Suricata. Only issue is as Bill Stated that approx 600 Snort rules will not load in Suricata due to incompatible Regex issues. (Maybe these rules are already in the ET rulesets. I have never investigated that.)

A couple of months back I contacted the snort guys to remove some rules that were carved in stone back in pre-historic times, since the stone was chipped and some pieces of it went missing. A few thousand years later, the rules are still there, and that's why I decided to contact them. They completely ignored me, thinking (and if any of them passes by here, please confirm) that no matter how old a rule is, it's still worth it to spend the man hours to maintain it. That's one X for snort.
You can see based on Bill's posts and mine around here that snort hasn't updated the imap commands yet. A critical part of an IDS for an "enterprise" use is therefore missing. That's two Xs for snort.
snort-inline. No need to comment on this, other than R.I.P. snort-inline. Three Xs so far. At this very same point, snort was voted out of the game. We decided to give it another chance though.
suricata comes along with its (far) superior stream and detection engine. Fanboysm aside, suricata was directly funded by the U.S. government for use as a toy in NSA's plans. As always, NEVER trust a single word, let alone a dot, of what I say. You can verify everything I say online. If it's good for them, it sure as hell it's good for me. That funding gave birth to a system that can max out a 10Gbps duplex connection, and have spare cycles to render a 3D video, at the same time. As it stands >right now<, comparing snort and suricata, suricata offers the ability to take advantage of our systems at their max potential, as they are right now. Since most people followed another member's advise (and basically ignored me), they used i3+ systems. Those systems went underutilized so far, since I have mentioned a (few) thousand times that snort doesn't actually act on the original packet, but a copy of the packet. To put it simply, the less than a handful of forum members that did decide to take my advice, saw snort running as fast on a p4 as an overclocked i7. Then again, who am I to know, right? Those systems (i3+) are completely ready for suricata's inline part, and will max out more bandwidth than you can afford. This is a HUGE advantage to suricata over snort.
Suricata is like building a solid foundation for the future. Think of it like snort on steroids. Better log management, better capture facilities. When the inline part finally arrives in pfsense, that will transform pfsense into a multi million $ firewall system, capable of taking even the best of the best on (cough USISC, later assimilated into NETCOM).
Speed wise, they both are pretty much the same as it stands right now.
Putting both systems side by side, most users will not notice the difference, right now. A year later when the inline part arrives, those users will run around reconfiguring their systems from the ground up. The rest of us will just tick a checkbox and forget about it.
For the upcoming suricata topic, I've decided to completely ignore the snort rules. Those rules that made it into ET (gpl for example) will be there, since they are technically part of ET, but the rest will be ignored. I believe it's best if we cut all ties with snort and let it die the horrendous death it deserves.
WRT the money needed for a subscription, I would prefer it if anyone finds any of the two topics interesting, instead of contacting me for donations, they donate to ET by purchasing a subscription. Rule maintainers have to make a living you know.
