SIGNATURE DATABASE


Posted by JMauntel on May 17, 2007 14:16:44

I would like to suggest adding the source code of the current rule to the online signature database. It would be very helpful to be able to quickly look at this while researching why an alert may have fired.

Nessus does something like this by providing a link to the source code of thier plugins that are listed in thier online database.


Example: http://www.nessus.org/plugins/index.php?view=single&id=10899

Jesse,

Thanks for the suggestion. As we plan to update the Snort.org site we'll take it into
consideration.
