Re: Rules updates broken?

Hi Guys,

we can confirm the following:
Ubuntu 14.04:
* pulledpork: OK
* wget: OK
* curl: OK

wget -V:
GNU Wget 1.15 übersetzt unter linux-gnu.

+digest +https +ipv6 +iri +large-file +nls +ntlm +opie +ssl/openssl

Wgetrc:
    /etc/wgetrc (System)
Lokale:
    /usr/share/locale
Übersetzt:
    gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DSYSTEM_WGETRC="/etc/wgetrc"
    -DLOCALEDIR="/usr/share/locale" -I. -I../../src -I../lib
    -I../../lib -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -I/usr/include -g -O2
    -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat
    -Werror=format-security -DNO_SSLv2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g -Wall
Gebunden:
    gcc -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat
    -Werror=format-security -DNO_SSLv2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -g -Wall
    -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro -L/usr/lib -lssl -lcrypto
    -ldl -lz -lidn -luuid ftp-opie.o openssl.o http-ntlm.o
    ../lib/libgnu.a

curl -V:
curl 7.35.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.35.0 OpenSSL/1.0.1f zlib/1.2.8 libidn/1.28 librtmp/2.3 Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtmp rtsp smtp smtps telnet tftp Features: AsynchDNS GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz TLS-SRP

SLES 11 SP3:
* pulledpork: no chance
* wget: certificate problem / works with --no-check-certificate
* curl: SSLv3 handshake problem / can't force TLS

wget -V:
GNU Wget 1.11.4

curl -V:
curl 7.19.7 (x86_64-suse-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.19.7 OpenSSL/0.9.8j zlib/1.2.7 libidn/1.10
Protocols: tftp ftp telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM SSL libz

So I think Joel is right. Its just a problem with older versions of wget and curl. We also tried using ca-cert path from Ubuntu under SLES with no success (curl --capath, wget --ca-directory). So I would say its no cert issue but a problem while "handshaking" (protocols and ciphers).

We use the following workaround on SLES now:

wget -v --no-check-certificatehttps://www.snort.org/rules/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz.md5?oinkcode=<code>  
<https://www.snort.org/rules/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz.md5?oinkcode=2fc754f30e469bc23a8a9c41199ea074bfef9da2>  -O 
/tmp/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz.md5
wget -v --no-check-certificatehttps://www.snort.org/rules/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz?oinkcode=<code>  
<https://www.snort.org/rules/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz?oinkcode=2fc754f30e469bc23a8a9c41199ea074bfef9da2>  -O 
/tmp/snortrules-snapshot-2962.tar.gz
/opt/pulledpork-0.7.0/pulledpork.pl -c /opt/pulledpork-0.7.0/etc/pulledpork.conf -P -H -T -n

Edit URLs and paths as required.

Hth.

Ciao,
Rene

We have moved to Cloudflare to balance the traffic we are receiving on the
site.  We had a particular user that shared an oinkcode somewhere, and as a
result we were dealing with over 35 Millon downloads a day, so we had to
upgrade a bit.

We have heard that older versions (or perhaps older cert trusts) of curl and
wget are having a problem navigating through Cloudflare over to the site.
It’s difficult for us to pin down as our tests work, and download numbers
are staying constant, however, we have had a few people (like yourselves)
say you can’t reach the site.

I suggest the above.  (versions of curl/wget/cert trusts) and let me know
your results.

If you use Debian Stable you get wget 1.13.4.
Googling the error message hints that you need wget >= 1.15.


Do anyone have a workaround? I don't want to compile the latest wget
manually, since this breaks the ability to easily keep everything
up to date with 'apt-get upgrade'.

Hi All,

We use wget to obtain rule updates from snort.org with our oink code, but it
is now broken.  Apparently, snort.org is now behind cloudflare, which denies
direct IP access.  Basically, the cert wget ultimately receives is
cloudflare's cert, not snort.org's.  A web browser seems to get redirected
somehow to the real snort site and gets the snort.org cert.  Thoughts?


wget works fine over here...  we've not seen any problems using it other
than a
few niggles here and there that were easily taken care of...

do you perhaps mean amazonaws instead of cloudfare?

what url are you using to get the rules? (obfuscate your oinkcode)

what version of snort are you trying to get rules for?
