Jimmy Jones commented on BIT-1240:
----------------------------------
Yes, my math was a bit off! Have tested it with my samples and it works great,
thanks!
My use case, where I stumbled across the issue, was where I was receiving
http_entity_data events and also content_gap events so I could reconstruct a
POST or response, and punch the holes in the right place. However the
content_gap event didn't occur "in order" with http_entity_data (in this case
before the content_gap occurred before all of the http_entity_data). Would you
like me to raise a separate issue for this, or keep it here?

> Key: BIT-1240
> URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1240
> Project: Bro Issue Tracker
> Issue Type: Problem
> Components: Bro
> Affects Versions: git/master, 2.3
> Environment: CentOS 6
> Reporter: Jimmy Jones
> Fix For: 2.4
>
> Attachments: get-hole1.trace
>
>
> Using attached test file, I tried using the file analysis framework to
> extract out the payload, which is a copy of one of the bro testcases but with
> a packet removed.
> However the extracted file has nulls padded at the beginning, but they should
> be at offset 1448. Looking at what happens, the gap is signalled to File::Gap
> before the data is received in File::DataIn, which calculates the offset to
> write the payload by adding the seen bytes to the missing byte count. Should
> gaps always be signalled in order with the data - this also affects users of
> content_gap, who would receive the data and hole "out of order"?
> Used the following bro script:
> event file_new(f: fa_file)
> {
> Files::add_analyzer(f, Files::ANALYZER_EXTRACT, [$extract_filename=f$id]);
> }
