Description

Hi Team,

Does Suricata support parsing subjectAltName data into a SSL/TLS sticky buffer? If not, it would be a nice feature to have if the subjectAltName is present in SSL/TLS certificate or in the X509 extension.

The attached .pcap may be used to test this feature request.

Please note there is an observed inconsistency with how the subjectAltName is being parsed amongst Suricata engine versions.

If Suricata 6+ is used on the attached .pcap, the subjectAltName is parsed:
Suri7

issuerdn       C=XX, CN=mamzon.ru, L=XX, O=XX, OU=XX, ST=XX, Email=webmaster@mamzon.ru, subjectAltName=*.mamzon.ru www.mamzon.ru
sample: d08f862fc5830ad381db2027c10823c5

If Suricata 5 and below are used, the subjectAltName is not parsed:
Suri5

'issuerdn': 'C=XX, CN=mamzon.ru/L=XX/O=XX/OU=XX/ST=XX/emailAddress=webmaster@mamzon.ru/unknown=*.mamzon.ru www.mamzon.ru',

An example of where Subject Alt Name Parsing would be handy is a pattern observed within Glupteba's new TLS certs

@Shivani Bhardwaj

Do you know what the behavior of this keyword is when there are multiple entires in the subject alt name?

the cert referenced within the crt.sh link above is a good example.

I was wondering if this supported multi-buffer mode, or if they were concatenated together in some predictable format (http.header_names style), etc.

Thanks for you work on this issue!

It traverses over all the subjectaltnames to find a match.
For example, for the pcap you have uploaded (Thank you! :) ), I see the following in the output and you should be able to alert against any of these.

"subjectaltname": [
      "server1.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server10.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server11.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server12.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server13.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server14.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server15.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server16.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server2.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server3.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server4.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server5.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server6.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server7.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server8.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "server9.xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai",
      "xn--j1ahhq.xn--p1ai" 
    ],

Please see this test: https://github.com/OISF/suricata-verify/pull/1743/files#diff-1fe69d447a4f37103b703b8e6ef28039c0853a6120f7b962487ffef188722ab0R1

the cert referenced within the crt.sh link above is a good example.

It is indeed supported in multi-buffer mode.
Please see this test for ref: https://github.com/OISF/suricata-verify/pull/1743/files#diff-7c7feedc3fa804dbd48367362fede7508f802e42fafe0f8cc69b7523fee22263R1

Please lmk if this makes sense to you or if something is not as per your expectations. Also, can I make the tests better?
