[Bro-Dev] #340: Cleanup: unify where global consts are defined (access from policy layer and event engine)

by Bro Tracker

#340: Cleanup: unify where global consts are defined (access from policy layer and event engine) -----------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: gregor | Owner: Type: Feature Request | Status: new Priority: Low | Milestone: Bro1.6 Component: Bro | Version: Keywords: | -----------------------------+-------------------- {{{ #!rst Global ``const``'s that are accessible from the policy layer and event engine (e.g., to configure features) are currently defined in different ways: 1. in ``bro.init`` and ``NetVar.{cc|h}`` 2. in a specific .bro policy script and ``NetVar.{cc|h}`` 3. in ``const.bif`` According to our discussion on bro-dev, we should change it to only use ``const.bif``. For case 2. we should add a ``redef`` in the .bro policy scripts, so that users looking at the script see that the const exists (TODO: how to best auto-doucment these). Setting milestone to 1.6 as it seems this can be done together with the general policy script overhaul, but can also be pushed backed. }}} -- Ticket URL: <http://tracker.icir.org/bro/ticket/340> Bro Tracker <http://tracker.icir.org/bro> Bro Issue Tracker

[Bro-Dev] #444: bug fix for POP3 analyzer

by Bro Tracker

#444: bug fix for POP3 analyzer ---------------------+----------------- Reporter: vern | Owner: Type: Problem | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: Bro | Version: Keywords: | ---------------------+----------------- The POP3 analyzer has a major bug, which is that it doesn't recognize '.' terminators in multi-line replies if the terminator is bare (no newline). This causes it to ignore the rest of the session that it's analyzing. Patch appended. I even tested it! -- Ticket URL: <http://tracker.icir.org/bro/ticket/444> Bro Tracker <http://tracker.icir.org/bro> Bro Issue Tracker

[Bro-Dev] #401: broctl crash reports should display size of core dump

by Bro Tracker

#401: broctl crash reports should display size of core dump ------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: seth | Owner: robin Type: Problem | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Bro1.6 Component: BroControl | Version: Keywords: | ------------------------+-------------------- This would help with remote debugging since it would become easier in some cases to determine the result of a crash if the crash is due to memory exhaustion. One case in particular that it would be really helpful for is someone running 32-bit Bro on a 64-bit platform since the crash (i think) will always happen right at 4GB. -- Ticket URL: <http://tracker.icir.org/bro/ticket/401> Bro Tracker <http://tracker.icir.org/bro> Bro Issue Tracker
