This version of Setup disabled noisy Suricata events by appending the following to /etc/nsm/pulledpork/disablesid.conf:
# Added by Security Onion Setup
stream-events
pcre:SURICATA\ ICMPv6
However, this was only for new installations that occurred after 3/14/2016. Older installations that had run Setup before that date did not have these entries in disablesid.conf.
This update re-enabled Suricata events rules. From #1141:
If you run Setup and choose Snort, it disables the Suricata events rules. If you then switch from Snort to Suricata, those Suricata events rules are still disabled. rule-update needs to enable these rules if necessary.
The net effect of all this is that older installations with Setup run before 3/14/2016 did not have the entries in disablesid.conf and now all of a sudden enabled all of the noisy Suricata events. rule-update needs to disable these noisy Suricata events if Setup hasn't already. We can most likely just copy the code from sosetup that does this:
# Disable noisy Suricata rules
if ! grep "Security Onion Setup" /etc/nsm/pulledpork/disablesid.conf >/dev/null 2>&1; then
cat << EOF >> /etc/nsm/pulledpork/disablesid.conf
# Added by Security Onion Setup
stream-events
pcre:SURICATA\ ICMPv6
EOF
fi
