You might want to take a look at stick or snot... They can be found at:

Subject: Snort signature packet generator

I'm attempting to train a neural network using snort, and I'm having 
trouble getting a good number of "bad" packets, IE: those that snort 
considers malicious.  Since a snort signature is really just a 
definition of a subset of all possible packets, it seems like 
it should 
be possible to create a packet that snort considers bad by filling in 
packet fields based on a snort signature, then filling the 
rest of the 
packet with random garbage.  Does anyone know if this type of program 
has already been created, and if so, where could I find it?  Thanks.
