  2. Outline • Introduction • Related Work • Background • Proposed Algorithm：AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Performance Analysis

  3. Introduction • TCP and IP fragmentation can be used to evade signature detection at IDS / IPS. • The common defense is buffering and reassembling packets. However, buffering of out-of-sequence packets can become impractical on high speed links due to limited fast memory capacity.

  4. Introduction • In this paper, AC-Suffix-Tree, a buffer free scheme for string matching is proposed, which detects patterns across out-of-sequence packets without buffering and reassembly. • This novel algorithm associates the classical AC (ACA) algorithm with a pattern suffix tree to search patterns with only the state numbers of AC automaton and suffix tree stored.

  5. Related Work • What is the current situation of packet reordering in Internet? • In 2005, Dharmapurikar found that packet reordering in TCP traffic only affects 2-3% of the overall traffic[6]. • An older paper reports that 90% of the TCP packets were reordered in the trace of Dec. 1997 and Jan. 1998 [3], but Dharmapurikar claims it was because the older generation of router architecture.

  6. Background • Pattern Suffix Tree： Let X = {abaaba ,ababab} , suffix set of X is {a,ba,aba,aaba,baaba,b,ab,bab,abab,babab}

  7. Background • The return value contains the stop state and a “fact” mark. Once the input string is not finished but there is no available next state, fact is false; and once the inputstring is finished but PST is not finished, fact is true. So fact = true means str is a proper factor of some patterns in X.

  8. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • A simple situation of two packets’ reordering. • When packet y2 comes first, a pattern may exist between the two packets only if some prefix of y2 is one suffix of the patterns.

  9. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • For example ：yi=aaba , yj=abaa stop at s6 append path(s6)

  10. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • What if the pattern x crosses more than two segments? • A information merging mechanism is used to merge the PST state records in successive blocks. • the return value “fact” of PST is used to identify the proper factorof x. fact = true means the entire segment is a properfactor of x, thus needs to merge the PST state with thepredecessor segment.

  11. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Example ： Pattern set X = {abaaba, ababab} Input Y = y1y2y3y4 , where y1 = bbaa ,y2 = baba ,y3 = baab ,y4 = aabb -> flow number -> sequence number -> length -> state of ACA -> state of PST

  12. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • First input is y3： (baab) passing y3 to both ACA & PST • Buffer contains (1,8,4,2,11,true)

  13. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Second input is y1： (bbaa) passing y1 to both ACA & PST • Buffer contains (1,8,4,2,11,true) , (1,0,4,2,11,false)

  14. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Third input is y4： (aabb) combine y4 with its predecessor (1,8,4,2,11,true) ACA begin with s2 ,PST begin with s11 • Buffer contains (1,0,4,1,8,false) , (1,8,8,0,12,false)

  15. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Fourth input is y2： (baba) combine y2 with (1,0,4,1,8,false) & (1,8,8,0,12,false) path(12) appended to y2’s tail -> bababaaba ACA match with {abaaba,ababab} • Buffer clean all records with fid = 1.

  16. AC-Suffix-Tree Algorithm • Compression of Suffix Tree： idea - using a suffix array instead of a tree • Pre-processing time will be longer but not the focus

  17. Performance Analysis • Pattern set is chosen from snort ,released on 2010/07/22. no regular expressions included. • Use traces generated by their own program. • Running on PC Pentium 2-core CPU ,4GB RAM ,32-bit XP

  18. Performance Analysis • Processing speed for different traces with long set

  19. Performance Analysis • Memory usage of AC and suffix tree

  20. Performance Analysis • 1,3,2,4,5, 6,7,8,9,10 • 1,4,5,6,7 8,9,10,2,3 • 1,3,4,6,7 8,9,2,10,5
