I'm trying to build a test for packet injection, which Bro should complain about as it generates retransmission inconsistencies and/or data after RST or other TCP weirdnesses.

Yet in my simple test trace (attached) and this simple policy script:

event rexmit_inconsistency(c: connection, t1: string, t2: string){
        print "Inconsistency";
        print t1;
        print t2;
}

its not flagging.

Is it because the data has already been ACKed and therefore the reassembler is no longer keeping track of the data?
