BARE BYTE UNICODE ENCODING

I am getting tons of these messages in my intrusion detection log but I see now rule that's firing this. Here is the line from the log:

 [ QUOTE ]
[119:4:1] (http_inspect) BARE BYTE UNICODE ENCODING  {PROTO006}  

[/ QUOTE ] 

Any way I can stop this from logging? It's filling up my log space rapidly.

  • That's not triggered by a rule - it's from the Snort http_inspect preprocessor. The message means that a web client uses a non-standard encoding for UTF-8 values. If possible, check the client which causes these alarms.
