We'll give this a look and see if we can get it fixed up.
Thanks

I think I might be getting some false positives with the rule:
"MYSQL client authentication bypass attempt"
My payload looks as follows:
length = 66
000 : 3E 00 00 01 85 A2 03 00 00 00 00 01 08 00 00 00 >...............

040 : 83 11
The rule is:
mysql.rules:alert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET any -> $SQL_SERVERS 3306 (msg:"MYSQL
client authentication bypass attempt"; flow:to_server,established;
flowbits:isset,mysql.server_greeting; content:"|01|"; depth:1; offset:3;
byte_test:1,&,0x80,4; byte_test:1,!&,0x02,4; content:"|00 14 00|";
offset:9; reference:bugtraq,10655; reference:cve,2004-0627;
reference:nessus,12639;
reference:url,www.nextgenss.com/advisories/mysql-authbypass.txt;
classtype:misc-attack; sid:3668; rev:5;)
As far as I can see it relies on the the string |00 14 00| to be present
after an offset of 9. I assume this is to catch the last byte of the
username which is |00|, the size of the password |14| (SHA1) and since
you have a salted SHA1 password, every now and then you could have the
first character of the hash be |00|. I did a test and after about 147
login attempts I got an alarm.
Not sure if it is normal for a SHA1 to have a start byte of |00|??
Anybody know about this?
I am using the client "mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.27, for
redhat-linux-gnu (i686) using readline 5.0"
