Re: Anyone else seeing lots of 129 20 this am?

And one more to the list of new sigs that went through the roof right
after update:

[133:59:1] (dcerpc2) SMB - Nextcommand specified in SMB2 header is
beyond payload boundary 

I purposely disabled updates Friday in order to add the preview three
to the threshold file, but this one bit me this morning as I re-enabled 
these.

Maybe it was just added to the preprocessor.rules then?   That makes

So judging by the lack of sid 20 in my gen-msg.map:

I'm betting this is a new-ish stream5 rule?  I don't have 120:18
either...thanks Joel.

We don’t make changes to preprocess it’s in a rule update. It’s
 possible that this alert may not have been included in the past
and we
 just introduced it.  That’s a possibility.  But we didn’t change
 any code with this release.

 That's what we did.
 We got more than 250k of them today. Sguil server died. We had
to
 delete those 250k alerts before being able to restart it
 successfully...

As you all know, however, that is a preprocessor alert.  It
may be
 as simple as shutting that preprocessor rule off?

 I noticed that too on the last Snort update. Getting a LOT
 more alerts. I also updated the rules at the same time and
never
 went back to the old rules to see if that was where the
change
 came in?

When you say "something changed", do you mean "Snort"

changed.  Or
"attacker behavior" may be changing?
