Dear Christian, Dear all, Very clear and reasoned writing! I see a benefit to choose the numbering of the paranoia level between 0 and 40. It’s distinguishable from the anomaly scoring and does not lead to misunderstanding. Default set to 10 sounds good for me. But I also see Chaim’s point not to leave that space.
Another question: If we clone rules to stricter siblings, we’ll produce a lot of log entries. Requests with more than 5 special characters and a paranoia level of 40 will create three distinct log-entries in turn. Is that the behavior that we want? Maybe we have to write the siblings in a way that only one rule matches, even at a high paranoia level? Example: SecRule ARGS_NAMES|ARGS|XML:/* "([\~\!\@\#\$\%\^\&\*\(\)\-\+\=\{\}\[\]\|\:\;\"\'\´\’\‘\`\<\>].*?){3,4}" \ Regards, Franziska 2016-02-09 5:53 GMT+01:00 Chaim Sanders <csand...@trustwave.com>: > Thanks Noel! > I will say @Christian that every time we leave space we never end up using > the space we leave I¹d vote for just 0-4, but it is just one mans opinion. > > On 2/8/16, 11:20 PM, > "owasp-modsecurity-core-rule-set-boun...@lists.owasp.org on behalf of Noël > Zindel" <owasp-modsecurity-core-rule-set-boun...@lists.owasp.org on behalf > of m...@noelzindel.org> wrote: > >>Hi everyone, >> >>let me chime in on this. >> > >From a newbie perspective, I¹d argue, the 0-4 definition would make sense >>since it would be a logical choice. >>You should be able to easily distinct between the paranoia rating and the >>anomaly rating through the latter¹s variable-definition e.g. warning, >>critical, Š >> >>Nevertheless, Christian¹s argument ³If we leave some room between the >>numbers, we have room to fill them in the future.² favours 0-40. >>At least for me, since I like the idea of planning way ahead. >> >>So, from my point of view, a range of 0-40 would be the favourable >>choice.
