[Snort-sigs] False Positives on Rule 2050

Subject: [Snort-sigs] False Positives on Rule 2050
Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2004 16:36:51 -0400
Rule:  MS-SQL version overflow attempt 
Sid: 2050

Summary: SID 2050 FP's on DNS reply traffic with ephemeral port 1434

--
Impact: Many FP's

Possible solution: change source port to !53

alert udp $EXTERNAL_NET !53 -> $HOME_NET 1434 (msg:""MS-SQL version
overflow attempt"";
content:""|04|""; offset:0; depth:1; dsize:>100;
reference:nessus,10674; reference:cve,CVE-2002-0649;
classtype:misc-activity; sid:2050; rev:1;)

A better solution would be to further refine this sig, but this would
reduce a fair number of FP's.
