- Description:
- Zeek (formerly known as Bro) is an open-source, Unix-based Network
Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) that passively monitors network
traffic and looks for suspicious activity. Zeek detects intrusions
by first parsing network traffic to extract its application-level
semantics and then executing event-oriented analyzers that compare
the activity with patterns deemed troublesome. Its analysis includes
detection of specific attacks (including those defined by signatures,
but also those defined in terms of events) and unusual activities
(e.g., certain hosts connecting to certain services, or patterns
of failed connection attempts).
Zeek is documented in the USENIX 1998 Security Conference proceedings
(as Bro).

security/bro: Update to 3.0.3 and address a number of potential
denial of service issues:
https://github.com/zeek/zeek/releases/tag/v3.0.2
https://github.com/zeek/zeek/releases/tag/v3.0.3
- Potential Denial of Service due to memory leak in DNS TSIG message
parsing.
- Potential Denial of Service due to memory leak (or assertion
when compiling with assertions enabled) when receiving a second
SSH KEX message after a first.
- Potential Denial of Service due to buffer read overflow and/or
memory leaks in Kerberos analyzer. The buffer read overflow (Only the first 15 lines of the commit message are shown above  ) |

security/zeek: This adds security/zeek, the new version of security/bro.
This is being done as svn copy instead of rename so that users of
security/bro can have some time to migrate. It also allows for
possible security updates to the old bro port which upstream has
indicated is possible for at least a few months.
