All,

Chas I took your rule that you provided yesterday and made it more accurate. I submitted this rule for inclusion into the officially community ruleset.

alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $HTTP_SERVERS $HTTP_PORTS (msg:"WEB- MISC Twiki shell command execution"; flow:to_server,established; uricontent:"/TwikiUsers?rev="; content:"|60|"; classtype:web- application-activity; sid:<waitingonsid>; rev:2;)

Hi List,

Whilst cycling to work this morning I thought about how I'd seen
/etc/passwd fly off a server from port 80 yesterday courtesy of twiki.

I thought lucky I checked that 'web-misc /etc/passwd attempt' alert as I
get so many from hackers attempting exploits but failing. It dawned on
me perhaps the rules could be extended so that they would check for
patterns in responses that occur commonly from the commands that are
being attempted. Things like;


root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash

from /etc/passwd or output from commands like uname -a

Perhaps the current web-misc rules could be given a lesser rating than
rules that detect commands that are actually successful?

This would slim down false positives greatly, anyone have anything like
this?


Thanks
