Re: how do i disable the specific snort rule called "TCP session without 3-way handshake [**] [Classification: Potentially Bad Traffic]"

Actually, the first thing I should have asked is what version of snort are you using?
Because this configuration is different for snort 2 and snort 3.

Thanks,
Vitalii!

Hi winxlinx,

in order to get rid of these alerts, you can use two ways:
1) if you think that this (lack of 3-way handshake) is normal for your traffic, you can use the stream_tcp.require_3whs parameter by setting it to -1. This will cause snort to process such sessions as a midstream, so doing full processing on them.
2) If you just don't want to see such alerts, you can use event filters or disable this rule using ips.states. Example:
ips.states =
[[
    alert ( gid:129; sid:20; enable:no; )
]]

From my point of view, using stream_tcp.require_3whs here would be more correct.

Thanks,
Vitalii!
