IPS signatures for Wannacry

I noticed that Snort has the following rules to detect WannaCry ramsonware and/or ms17-10 on its defect?

Snort rules

42329-42332, 42340, 41978

 

Can I assume , Sophos UTM, which seems to be running Snort has indeed rolled these signatures?   I looked everywhere in Sophos for such information with little luck.

 

Could anyone here help corroborate?

 

Thanks,

-Eric

  • Yes 42340, 41978 are present and set to block. BUT to be more in detail, these are four doublepulsar detection rules (42329-42332). Problem I see (correct me if I am wrong) is that Sophos is not blocking the doublepulsar detections because these rules are only in the warning section. Would be interesting to know if it works if you manually add these rules at advanced and set them all to hard drop. But I fear this may not work. I guess Sophos has to move these four rules to the blocking list instead of the warning list.

     

    BTW setting "add extra warnings" will NOT work. Quote from manual: "Add extra warnings: When this option is selected, each group will include additional rules increasing the IPS detection rate. Note that these rules are more general and vague than the explicit attack patterns and will therefore likely produce more alerts. For that reason, the default action for these rules is Alert, which cannot be configured."
