TclTls has been patched (on Ubuntu 12.04, at least) to deal with this.

Hi James,

There is an ongoing discussion about this in the security onion list.
While I am not a regular user of SO, the discussion itself is 
interesting since I also use sguil ( I did not update OpenSSL) after 
reading the discussion. The general recommendation was not to upgrade 
or to downgrade OpenSSL..

Sorry, don't have the link at the moment

Hey All,

 Emailed the sguil list, but got nothing back yet, so emailing here.
 Looks like the latest OpenSSL update nuked sguil 0.9.0 as shown:

 From sguild:

 2015-06-23 14:45:36 pid(14931) Closing socket.

 From the snort_agent:

 Connected to localhost
 Sending sguild (sock3) RegisterAgent snort POS POS
 ERROR: error writing "sock3": software caused connection abort :
 RegisterAgent snort POS POS
 Socket sock3 closed
 Attempting to reconnect.

 Is there any way to disable ssl usage? In my case the agents are on 
the  local machine anyway. Thanks....bummer morning :(

 James


Thanks YM...my fix was:

If you can't downgrade, a workaround could be to force some other cipher on the sensors, like MD5.

change these lines in snort_agent.tcl and pcap_agent.tcl:

tls::import $dataChannelID -ssl2 false -ssl3 false -tls1 true -cipher
MD5

Since these are all on the local box anyway....up and running...woo hoo!
