However, this rule will trigger if the string "HTTP/" is anywhere in the packet.
This could take care of it in most cases:
pcre:"/^\w+ +\S+ +HTTP\/(?!([1-9]\d*)?\d\.([1-9]\d*)?\d$)/smi"
or
pcre:"/^\w+ +\S+ +HTTP\/(?!\d\.\d$)/smi"
The first one is fully RFC 2616 compliant while the second variant is tailored
towards commonly used versions. An extreme would be to list the typical
versions explicitly:
pcre:"/^\w+ +\S+ +HTTP\/(?!(0\.9|1\.[01])$)/smi"
So the full rule would be:
alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HTTP_SERVERS $HTTP_PORTS
(msg:"WEB-MISC Invalid HTTP Version String"; flow:to_server,established;
content:"HTTP/";
isdataat:6,relative;
content:!"|0A|"; within:5;
pcre:"--VERSION-CHECK-FROM-ABOVE--";
reference:bugtraq,9809; reference:nessus,11593;
classtype:non-standard-protocol; sid:2570; rev:7;)
