Re: More poorly performing GID 3 rules....

[Patrick Mullen <pmullen () sourcefire com>]

Actually, both of those rules are open source if you want to look at
their source code.

bad-traffic_pgm-nak-overflow.c
p2p_winny.c

Not all SO rules are closed source.  Many SO rules are C code because
they do much more than the standard rules library allows; despite
popular opinion, rules aren't compiled only to obfuscate the
detection.  :)


Hope this helps,
