Count option WAS smtp rcpt to overflow

["Greg Wright" <greg () ipera com au>]

I have been trying to use Snort to help us deal with a 'Joe Job' style
spam attack. (A domain we host was used as the From address for a spam
run that has meant that we are receiving all the undeliverables -- all 1
million+ and counting - over 6Gb easily)


One of the things that would be really great was if snort could deal
with a rule if it was seen 'x' number of times within a certain
timeframe. Kinda like the portscan stuff I guess.

Just an idea while I was playing with Snort a few nights ago.

Cheers,
Greg

<snip> (maybe there should be added some "count option" for such
exploits
to these rules.)
