Description

alert http any any -> any any (msg:"FILE Check PDF "; fileext:"pdf"; filestore; sid:9999993; rev:2;)
alert http any any -> any any (msg:"FILE  Check PDF "; fileext:pdf; filestore; sid:9999994; rev:2;)

both rules above load - notice the missing double quotes around fileext:pdf.
This is the case with most of the file keywords.

Actions #3

no - it is not a problem at the moment.
I think it is inconsistency though - should we use quotes or not?
