p0f v3 signature definitions

Quick question about OS fingerprinting:

Will the OS fingerprinting code in bro be updated to use the new fingerprint definitions given in the latest version of p0f(3.06b)?

Thanks,

It depends on what you mean by that. :slight_smile:

I tend to upgrade the signatures when there are new releases, but we only support the original SYN packet mechanism (and not the newer SYN/ACK mechanism) so not all of the signatures will do anything directly. We do certainly accept patches if you feel up for updating the p0f code!

I tried dropping the v3 sigs into Bro's existing p0f mechanism, and it was *really* unhappy - I believe it would just quickly segfault. I even tried only importing the SYN-only sigs. I don't think the new format is backwards compatible with the old format, and would need some work to support.
