Pulledpork and sid-msg.map

[Avery Rozar <Avery.Rozar () i-techsupport com>]

Is it safe to assume when using pulledpork the msg field in the snort.rules gets pulled into the sid-msg.map for 
barnyard2 to write into the alert?

If so, where in the pulledpork.pl script should I add a shell script to add drop into the msg field. I can run this 
[sed -i '/^drop/s/(msg:"/(msg:"drop - /‘ /etc/snort/rules/snort.rules] in a shell script and adds the drop into the msg 
field, but I need to do this before the sid-msg.map is generated for this to work.

I’ve added the following command in two places with no luck.

system ("sh /opt/scripts/./add_drop_msg.sh”);


At the end of [sub rule_write]

If I put it here it will write drop in the msg on the snort.rules, but not sid-msg.map.


At the beginning of [sub sid_write]

If I put it here it will write drop in the msg on the snort.rules, but not sid-msg.map.
