Re: geting this rule to work

The protocol-icmp.rules file has a rule ready for detecting traceroutes. If you will be using PulledPork, look for that 
rule's sid, included it in your enablesid.conf file and test. Just make sure the flow of the rule matches your 
$HOME_NET and $EXTERNAL_NET configs. If not, add the modifications required in your modifysid.conf file (if you are 
using PulledPork), or simply make the changes inline.

Your rule is for all IP traffic, not just ICMP traffic..  then it
looks for any packet with a ttl <3 and it triggers.

Try changing the rule for just icmp, then you can tweak it even more
so with ICMP types and codes, not just ttl.

There is (was? I use pp so i forget) a ICMP.rules files that you can
look at for examples.

Hello,
Pls I need help in writing this rule correctly to detect an internal user executing traceroute command to external 
destination
I wrote this:
alert ip any any -> any any (msg:"Traceroute command attempted"; ttl:<3; sid:1000007)

When I run the traceroute command it generate this:
1/15-20:27:13.387207  [**] [1:1000007:0] Traceroute command attempted [**] [Priority: 0] {ICMP} 192.168.64.133 -> 
10.1.10.11

It also generates this alert even when I don’t issue the traceroute command, if I just live snort to run:
1/15-20:23:41.428077  [**] [1:1000007:0] Traceroute command attempted [**] [Priority: 0] {UDP} 
fe80::6164:3504:b284:123d:546 -> ff02::1:2:547
