Re: http_* keywords

There is no configuration option to turn off the HTTP request URI extraction
and detection in HTTP. By default all the http buffers are extracted by
snort (except cookie buffer).

The option inspect_uri_only should however turn off all other http keywords.
It seems to be broken and will be fixed in the next release.

Thanks

 So if a rule has an http_* keyword (http_uri, http_client_body,
http_method) but the snort configuration does not allow the use of it
because it is missing in the http_inspect configuration section, why
does the rule choose to match and fire for that content that is using
that keyword modifier?
