Would this be an appropriate use for byte_test or byte_jump?


That's what I was referring to when I mentioned applications. The problem with http traffic is that it's much more freeform and doesn't lend itself to byte_test and byte_jump type tests.


I'd probably use a combination of isdataat and pcre for this. As Marty said, 99.9999% of things can be found with plaintext Snort rules. Anything else, you can use an .so rule for.
