I am trying to create an Informer rule that will feed a Informer alert.  I am basically looking for a direct to IP http connection followed by a query string that contains a "/" followed by 44 alpha or numeric string.  This is what I wrote as the rule:

 

query regex \/[a-z0-9]{44} && risk.suspicious = 'direct to ip http request'

 

It works but I am also getting stuff like the attached file being flagged.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Do you have multiple "query" meta in the session that is flagged?  If so, only one meta needs to hit in order to cause that session to return as a result.

Nope that is the only query for this session which is why I was confused.  I can't see how this could have triggered.

Possibly hitting some limit that informer is setting without you knowing?  I am using SA so I can't test it but on regexpal your correctly formatting everything.
