Description

An issue was identified with Suricata 8 where it would stop working as expected, reporting 0 packetRate and no longer producing payloads.
From investigation, the issue looks to only affect instances where suricata receives GRE or ERSPAN encapsulated traffic although only a 20% of these are affected.
We have been unable to reproduce this in our lab setting

From our investigation within our product we found:
  • Normal behaviour would return after a restart, normally triggered by the weekly rules release, then stop some random amount of time after
  • This has occurred across a number of different OS - ubuntu 24.04, rhel 8.10, rhel 9.5 etc
