Michael Rash [Wed, 2 Jan 2013 03:20:00 +0000]
Added EMAIL_THROTTLE for email throttling
Added the ability to throttle emails generated by psad via a new
EMAIL_THROTTLE variable which is implemented as a per-IP threshold. That
is, if EMAIL_THROTTLE is set to "10", then psad will only send 1/10th as
many emails for each scanning IP as it would have normally. This feature
was suggested by Naji Mouawad.
Michael Rash [Wed, 2 Jan 2013 01:56:00 +0000]
Configurable auto-blocking timeout values.
Oscar Marley suggested configurable auto-blocking timeout values depending on
the danger level that a scan or attack achieves. This resulted in the
implementation of the AUTO_BLOCK_DL*_TIMEOUT variables.
Michael Rash [Sun, 23 Dec 2012 03:19:19 +0000]
added --analysis-auto-block mode to allow auto-responses to be testing in -A mode

Michael Rash [Fri, 21 Dec 2012 02:06:46 +0000]
Detect Topera IPv6 scans when IP options are logged
Added detection for Topera IPv6 scans when --log-ip-options is used in
the ip6tables logging rule. When this option is not used, the previous psad-2.2 release detected Topera scans. An example TCP SYN packet
generated by Topera when --log-ip-options is used looks like this (note the series of empty IP options strings "OPT ( )":

Parse fwsnort rules for 'msg' fields
Added the ability to acquire Snort rule 'msg' fields from fwsnort if
it's also installed. A new variable FWSNORT_RULES_DIR tells psad where
to look for the fwsnort rule set. This fixes a problem reported by Pui
Edylie to the psad mailing list where fwsnort logged an attack that psad
could not map back to a descriptive 'msg' field.
Michael Rash [Sun, 16 Dec 2012 03:12:22 +0000]

Bug fix for NetAddr::IP usage in --analysis-fields IP search mode
Bug fix in --Analyze mode when IP fields are to be searched with the
--analysis-fields argument (such as --analysis-fields "SRC:1.2.3.4").
The bug was reported by Gregorio Narvaez, and looked like this:
Use of uninitialized value $_[0] in length at
../../blib/lib/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP.pm (autosplit into
../../blib/lib/auto/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP/hasbits.al) line 126.
Use of uninitialized value $_[0] in length at
../../blib/lib/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP.pm (autosplit into
../../blib/lib/auto/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP/hasbits.al) line 126.
Bad argument length for NetAddr::IP::UtilPP::hasbits, is 0, should be
128 at ../../blib/lib/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP.pm (autosplit into
../../blib/lib/auto/NetAddr/IP/UtilPP/_deadlen.al) line 122.
Added --stdin argument to allow psad to collect iptables log data from
STDIN in --Analyze mode.

Added install.answers.example file to illustrate install.pl answers to be consumed by --Use-answers
Michael Rash [Sat, 21 Apr 2012 02:06:29 +0000]
changelog and credits update
Michael Rash [Sat, 21 Apr 2012 01:58:38 +0000]
Added the ability to automatically get query answers from --answers-file
By default the install.pl script records user answers to installation queries
so they can be used to install psad in an automated fashion later. A new
option --Use-answers makes this possible. This feature was requests by
@pyllyukko.
Michael Rash [Fri, 20 Apr 2012 01:59:43 +0000]

matched all chdir() calls with getcwd() for easier test suite support
Michael Rash [Fri, 20 Apr 2012 01:20:52 +0000]
added the psad-require-makemaker.spec file
Michael Rash [Fri, 20 Apr 2012 01:13:58 +0000]
Removed the ExtUtils::MakeMaker build requirement
Although building the psad RPM builds a set of perl modules which themselves
have the 'use ExtUtils::MakeMaker' requirement in their respective Makefile.PL
scripts, some Linux distributions don't seem to make it easy to install
ExtUtils::MakeMaker in a manner in which the local RPM install can see it.
And, at the same time, it usually is there since installing perl modules is
such a common operation. The compromise is this solution, which will allow the
psad RPM to be built even if RPM dosen't or can't see that ExtUtils::MakeMaker
is installed - most likely it will build anyway. If it doesn't, there are
bigger problems since psad is written in perl. If you want to build the psad
RPM with a .spec file that requires ExtUtils::MakeMaker, then use the
"psad-require-makemaker.spec" file that is bundled in the psad sources.
