Description

Windows clients are able to process TCP data even if they arrived shortly after TCP RST packet so the current behaviour is logical but open door for IDS bypasses
PoC pcap attached.
The following signatures should alert on HTTP request and answer:

alert tcp any any -> any any (msg: "TCP BEEN NO_STREAM RULE"; flow: no_stream; content: "been"; sid: 1; )
alert tcp any any -> any any (msg: "TCP BEEN ONLY_STREAM RULE"; flow: only_stream; content: "been"; sid: 2; )
alert http any any -> any any (msg: "HTTP BEEN RULE"; content: "been"; sid: 3; )
alert tcp any any -> any any (msg: "TCP GET NO_STREAM RULE"; flow: no_stream; content: "GET"; sid: 4; )
alert tcp any any -> any any (msg: "TCP GET ONLY_STREAM RULE"; flow: only_stream; content: "GET"; sid: 5; )
alert http any any -> any any (msg: "HTTP GET RULE"; content: "GET"; sid: 6; )

but only sid 1 and 4 alerts.
