Re: no documentation about some rules

malware-cnc means that IP address has been observed acting as a
Command and Control server for some malware in the past, which in turn
means you might want to check if any of those boxes which are trying
to talk to it are compromised.

Not so sure about blacklists - it depends on which list they were found in.

cheers,

I have one instance of snort that raises some event. I didn’t find the
documentation about their online and in opensource.tar.gz.

All event belong two categories, malware-cnc.rules and blacklist.rues

For example

27247, 28539, 28805, 29262, 24034, 30833, 23493, 30825, 30842, 30840, 30836,
30827, 30835, 31136, 30260, etc…



Why there aren’t a documentation about their?

How can I find information about this event?



I’m registered user and use rules 2962.



Thanks
