Re: [Snort-sigs] rsync problem

This sounds like its a good candidate for moving to deleted.  The rsync
protocol is pretty unstructured in places and essentially requires a
preprocessor to parse and deal with effectively.  We'll give rsync 2.5.6
and 2.5.7 a diff check out the heap overflow and see if it's fixable, if
not we'll move it to deleted.  In the mean time I'd suggest disabling it
in your environment.

Hi thanks for the response, It's a bit of a dumb error on my side!

Now I have the problem that I get a lot of false possitives on my rsync.
All the rsync traffic is legit (I am very sure of this since I
personally triggerd all the alerts from my rsync client!)...

Could this be due to little/big endian issue between the client and
server?  Anybody know the format of the rsync packet?

   If we step through this rule we see that first 2 bytes are A4 which
is
   not more than 4000!  The rest of the rule is satisfied though...

The first two bytes are "A4 00" which is decimal 41984.
