Wildfire - URL Truncated

Not applicable

Hi, it seems that the URL in WildFire Report Details is truncated. Would like to know this is as per design or a bug? We would like to download the malware to submit to our AV vendor for signature.

Hi Chang,

If you can share the exact URL we can test it in the lab and share the results to see if we have the same issue and find the expected behavior for you. You can also share the report for us to view the details on it.

Phoenix,

Lets take this phishing URL:-

Actual full path:- www.theironworkstavern.com/info.php?inv=I0RkollR2tIHKR9t1vElfNtZzpxFcfAGR4TZ+PQ/WM4=

PaloAlto WildFire Report :-www.theironworkstavern.com/info.php?inv=I0RkollR2tIHKR9t1vElfNt

Not sure it is the display being truncated or it has been truncated before insert to the database

Thanks for sharing let me test and get back to you.

I understand the point that it should not be truncated before submitting for analysis.. may be it is a GUI issue of truncated, but let me find details from my side too.

The maximum length of filename field in the WildFire Portal is 63 bytes which is too short to cover full path in some cases, hence the report shows a truncated name.

Thanks,

Aditi, is there a way to get the full path of the URL? we need the file to submit to our AV vendor. Can this be fix to display full URL ? or the sample can be made available for us to download?

This is our current file name length limitation, please contact your sales representative for a FR to increase the length of the path. You can't download the samples at this time, but the Malware samples are retained by PAN and used for research purposes.


Thanks,

Aditi
