Do you know if there are any web based references showing the overall structure of a snort plugin...
Justin was suggesting you check the book out from your local library. The link he pasted will tell you where the closest library is with the book available.
Is there a Python wrapper for a plugin... boy - now that would be most useful.... Do these plugins deploy "callbacks" or are there special method with exact names I have to "subclass"?
Try this link to simplify the process. http://afrodita.unicauca.edu.co/~cbedon/snort/snort.html
I've looked at some of these plugins, and they are so completely different from each other (in the way they were written), but I see little to no commonality between them, other then the spo_ prefix for the plugin file names...
What you seek is there. Look at templates/* and src/plugbase.*
Is it possible to write a Python based plugin "wrapper" that deploys common "callbacks" into Python?
Sure. Why? Check here for a perl detection plugin for an older release of snort. http://cerberus.sourcefire.com/~jeff/archives/snort/sp_perl/
Oviously, I'm going to want to deply threads for this.... I think!!! I just haven't had this experience yet, and hope to hook up with someone on this mailing list working on similar types of things so we can share info.
I humbly suggest that you reconsider.
My project is important to me, because it's going to contribute to the detection and eradication of botnets.
I wish you the best in that pursuit. Care to share more detail? I'm fairly certain there are better ways of achieving what you want.
