Possible To Block HTTP/1.0 Requests?

L2 Linker

Can't seem to find a way to do it. I don't see a built-in signature, and was going to make a custom one, but the patern match context doesn't seem to cover the HTTP version for some odd reason. Maybe I'm missing something?

Can you put in a screen shot of the packet capture you want to make it based off of?

Although the custom signature document indicates the "http-req-headers" context excludes the ablity to match on the method/path/version/host info, I have found that you can at least match on the method and version info using this context.

 

I haven't tried to match path/host info, however, as there are specific contexts available for those headers.

 

The attached vulnerability sig XML looks for v1.1 in a GET method, it would be easy enough to modify it to look for 1.0.
