Life Cycle of a Snort Rule: From Vulnerability to Coverage

Alex KirkSourcefire VRT

About the Sourcefire VRT

• Founded in 2001• 20 team members

– Core team members based in Columbia, Maryland (USA)– ClamAV team members based in Poland, Italy and Germany– Threat Feed team members based in Columbia and India

• Responsibilities include:– Publishing new Snort rules and Sourcefire Protection

Updates– Publishing new ClamAV signatures– Development of the ClamAV Engine

2

Bug Announcement

• Oracle issues October 2009 Critical Patch Update• 16 total bugs are fixed• 3 have a CVSS score of 10• No public information• Reverse-engineering and

fuzzing difficult at best– Too many things fixed at once– Too big of a program

3

Exploit Surfaces

• Dennis Yurichev posts to Full-Disclosure• Source code and Windows executable attached– Script-kiddie friendly DoS– No shellcode included

• Easy launching point for more malicious exploits

4

Run the Exploit

• Does it actually work?– Some published exploits have intentional brokenness– Some are just written by lamers

• Need a valid target– VMware setups are best– Snapshot before you run an exploit

5

Yeah, It Works

6

Get A PCAP

sudo tcpdump –n –i eth0 –s0 –w <pcap name>

7

PCAP Cleanup• Ugly PCAPs are your enemy

– More packets = more work– Broken checksums screw up Snort

• Always use a BPF filter• http://www.shmoo.com/~bmc/software/random/fix-cksum.pl

is your friend

Validate Your Hypothesis!

11

What’s Different?

• Yes, there are other differences• Start with the one the exploit called out

12

It’s The Length, Stupid

• Undocumented protocols seem scary– How am I ever going

to figure all this out?

• Good news: you don’t need to!

Many binary protocols have length/value pairs

Don’t forget to test your valid traffic, too!

21

False Positives• Nobody’s perfect• Part of any rule-writer’s job: fixing mistakes

22

False Positive Example: SID 12741• QuickTime buffer overflow• Looks like:RTSP/1.0 200 OK

Content-Type: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA <shellcode goes here>

23

Evasion Case RTSP/1.0 200 OK

Content-Type : AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA <shellcode goes here>

Spaces between “Content-Type” and “:”24

Existing Rulealert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET 554 -> $HOME_NET

any (msg:"EXPLOIT Apple Quicktime TCP RTSP sdp type buffer overflow attempt"; flow:to_client,established; content:"RTSP"; depth:4; content:"Content-Type"; nocase; content:"|3A|"; distance:0; isdataat:256,relative; content:!"|0A|"; within:256; content:!"|3A|"; within:256; metadata:service rtsp; reference:bugtraq,26549; reference:cve,2007-6166; classtype:attempted-user; sid:12741; rev:9;)

25

Rule Problem• Goal - Allow for spaces between “Content-

Type” and “:”• Actual result – any “:” following “Content-

Type” in the packet matches

RTSP/1.0 200 OK

Content-Type: application/sdp

a=pgmpu:data:application/x-wms- contentdesc,8,language,31,0,,42,WMS_CONTENT_DESCRIPTION_PLAYLIST_ENTRY_URL,31,1,/,58,WMS_CONTENT_DESCRIPTION_COPIED_METADATA_FROM_PLAYLIST_FILE,3,1,1,47,WMS_CONTENT_DESCRIPTION_PLAYLIST_ENTRY_DURATION...

26

Fixed Rulealert tcp $EXTERNAL_NET 554 -> $HOME_NET any

(msg:"EXPLOIT Apple Quicktime TCP RTSP sdp type buffer overflow attempt"; flow:to_client,established; content:"RTSP"; depth:4; fast_pattern; content:"Content-Type"; nocase; isdataat:257,relative; content:!"|0A|"; within:257; pcre:"/Content-Type\s*\x3A[^\n\x3A]{256}/smi"; metadata:service rtsp; reference:bugtraq,26549; reference:cve,2007-6166; classtype:attempted-user; sid:12741; rev:10;)

27

Improvements• PCRE validates spaces – more accurate• Uses new “fast_pattern” keyword– “Content-Type” is common– “RTSP” is not– Matching less common content

means other rule options getevaluated less, so rule is faster

28

New Snort Keywords• http_method• http_client_body• http_header• http_cookie

• All restrict where you search for a content match• Smaller search area = faster, more accurate• Check the Snort Manual frequently!
