Snort Tutorial :
-------------------
3 Basic Modes :
--------------------
1. Sniffer Mode
2. Packet Logger Mode (Logs Packets to disk)
3. Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) , analyze network traffic as per Rules Defined by users.
Sniffer Mode :
------------------

3 Main Commands :
--------------------
snort -v --> Headers
snort -dv --> Headers + Packet Data
snort -dev --> Headers + Packet Data + Data Link Layer
snort -dev -l ./log --> -l for specifying Log Directory
snort -dev -l ./log -h 192.168.0.0/24 --> Log data with specified network range
snort -dev -l ./log -b --> Binary mode logging
snort -dev -r packet.log --> Read packets with -r switch

http://seclists.org/snort/2010/q4/533How to create own snort Rules :
--------------------------------------
SQL Injections are becoming very common attacks on websites , in such cases we can detect attemps on IDS like snort
We need to find signature for most common SQL Injection Queries
Ex.
' or 1=1-- --> %27+or+1%3D1--
Rule for attack :
--------------------
alert tcp any any -> any any (content:"%27+or+1%3D1--";msg:"Dude Someone is performing SQL INJECTION";sid:1000003;rev:1;)
Content = %27+or+1%3D1--
msg = Message you want to display
sid = Unique ID assigned to this rule
sid & rev uniquely identify the rule
Implement Rule in Snort :
-------------------------------
1. vi sqlinjection.rules (I created this file /etc/snort/rules )
2. alert tcp any any -> any any (content:"%27+or+1%3D1--";msg:"Dude Someone is performing SQL INJECTION";sid:1000003;rev:1;)
3. Save and Exit
4. vi /etc/snort/snort.conf
5. Edit As Below :
----------------------------------
include $RULE_PATH/youtube.rules
include $RULE_PATH/sqlinjection.rules
----------------------------------
In our case #RULE_PATH = /etc/snort/rules/
6. Save and Exit
7. snort -v -i eth0 -l . -c /etc/snort/snort.conf --snaplen 1518
-l . --> Save files in current directory
-c --> Snort configuration file
--snaplen 1518 -->
8. Execute attack on client machine
Snort Output :
-----------------
Action Stats:
Alerts: 5 ( 0.074%) --> We successfully caught ATTACK!!!
Logged: 5 ( 0.074%)
Passed: 0 ( 0.000%)
9. Check file alert in current directory
[root@universe rules]# pwd
/etc/snort/rules
[root@universe rules]# cat alert
[**] [1:1000003:1] Dude Someone is performing SQL INJECTION [**]
[Priority: 0]
10/23-20:05:06.145217 192.168.0.101:45670 -> 192.168.0.13:8080
TCP TTL:64 TOS:0x0 ID:2665 IpLen:20 DgmLen:332 DF
***AP*** Seq: 0x6564F124 Ack: 0x28B08D67 Win: 0x2E TcpLen: 32
TCP Options (3) => NOP NOP TS: 42526540 5354755
[**] [1:1000003:1] Dude Someone is performing SQL INJECTION [**]
[Priority: 0]
10/23-20:05:06.230814 192.168.0.104:28692 -> 220.226.205.30:80
TCP TTL:64 TOS:0x0 ID:41431 IpLen:20 DgmLen:260 DF
***AP*** Seq: 0x29121933 Ack: 0x43B3A536 Win: 0x2E TcpLen: 32
TCP Options (3) => NOP NOP TS: 5354776 23618074
Now we have All required information about ongoing Attack!!!!
Why we used --snaplen ??
------------------------------
Command : snort -V
My Current Snort version : Version 2.9.0.5
When I use snort without --snaplen option , I was not able to collect alerts , nor any alert file was generated
With reference to :
http://seclists.org/snort/2010/q4/533The IPQ and NFQ DAQs had an internal buffer limitation that is fixed in the latest release.
Will be adding more soon.....
