It doesn't look like flood protection is required with the
stateless parser anymore. It actually can get in the way of TCP
DNS when a large number of requests end-up in the same segment
where a TX can get purged before it has a chance to go through
the normal TX life-cycle.
Lately, some of the TLS data was misdetected as DCERPC/TCP because of
the pattern |05 00|. Add more checks in DCERPC probe function to ensure
that it is in fact DCERPC/TCP.
DNS no longer requires a logger to be registered for to-client and
to-server directions. This has not been required with the stateless
design of the Rust DNS parser.
So that lexical-core, needed by nom, and using bitflags
is used with version 0.7.5 instead of version 0.7.0
which fixed the fact that BITS is now a reserved keyword
in nightly version
Renaming was done with shell commands, git mv for moving the files and content like
find -iname '*.c' | xargs sed -i 's/ikev1/ike/g' respecting the different mixes of upper/lower case.
Lately, Wireguard proto starting w pattern |04 00| is misdetected as
DCERPC/UDP which also starts with the same pattern, add more checks
to make sure that it is the best guess for packet to be dcerpc/udp.
The book defines transmute as "This is really, truly, the most horribly unsafe
thing you can do in Rust. The guardrails here are dental floss."
Transmute can result into mind boggling undefined behaviors. Get rid of
it wherever possible.
As we don't install the libraries by default, provide a make target,
"install-library" to install the libsuricata library files.
If shared library support exists, both the static and shared
libraries will be installed, otherwise only the static libraries
will be installed.
AppLayerRegisterParser was creating a link error when attempting
to use a convenience library for the Suricata C code, then linking
the library of C code with the library of Rust code into a final
Suricata executable, or use with fuzz targets.
By moving AppLayerRegisterParser to the context structure and
calling it like a callback the circular reference is removed
allowing the convenience libraries to work again.
This is also a stepping block to proving a Suricata library
as a single .a or .so file.
The "md-5" crate is part of the RustCrypto project that also
uses the sha1 and sha256 crates we are using. These all implement
the Digest trait for a common API.
