New securityonion-bro-scripts, securityonion-onionsalt, and salt packages

I've updated the securityonion-bro-scripts package to include Seth Hall's ShellShock detector from here:
https://github.com/broala/bro-shellshock

securityonion-bro-scripts also creates a new directory called /opt/bro/share/bro/intel/ that makes it easy for you to add intel to the Bro Intel framework.

Mike Reeves, Ryan Peck, and I have updated the OnionSalt scripts to replicate more data from master to sensor.  This includes the /opt/bro/share/bro/intel/ directory mentioned above and also OSSEC's agent.conf and local_decoder.xml files.

Finally, SaltStack has updated their salt packages, so we include that as well.

New package versions:
salt - 2014.1.10-1precise1
securityonion-bro-scripts - 20121004-0ubuntu0securityonion36
securityonion-onionsalt - 20140917-0ubuntu0securityonion17

New package OnionSalt now available for configuration management

Mike Reeves created OnionSalt, a set of Salt configuration management scripts to manage lots of sensors from your master server.  I've packaged OnionSalt and added support for it in Setup.

Please note that Salt is totally optional.  If you're happy with your current method of sensor management, then you don't have to install securityonion-onionsalt and nothing will change for you.  Should you decide to install securityonion-onionsalt, you get the following features out of the box:

• manage user accounts, sudoers, and SSH keys from one location and have it replicate to all sensors
• have sensors check for new IDS rules every 15 minutes, copy files, and restart engines as necessary

In addition, Salt is a full configuration management system, so you can script anything that you want to deploy across your army of sensors.

Thanks
Thanks to Mike Reeves for developing OnionSalt!
Thanks to the following for testing:
JP Bourget
David Zawdie

Warning
OnionSalt is still considered experimental.  You'll want to test in a lab environment before deciding to deploy in production.

Installing
To read more about how to integrate OnionSalt into a new or existing Security Onion deployment, please see our Salt page:
