The sorts of places where I see this being useful are well served by the Signatures framework.
The traceroute detector in policy/misc is a pretty good example of this ‘sort’ of thing.

Subject: [Bro] Packet Level Analysis
Hello,
This is probably a very silly question, but I just wanted to get some opinions. Is it possible/feasible to do packet level analysis with bro (e.g., looking at the entire packet as a string to find similar patterns between packets)? Or is bro too high-level to make this an option, as it seems that the relevant events (new_packet, packet_contents, etc.) are exceedingly slow.
If this is possible, however, would I be able to do this in bro scripts or would I need to do something like write the module in C/C++ to hook into bro?
Cheers,
Gehana
