    Looking for an intrusion detection script for a website.

    Anybody know of a script that will scan your website logs, and create a PHP or HTML readout of the results. I'm not looking for SNORT but something where I can read the results online.

    EDIT: I should add that i have access to the access and error logs, but not root access to the server.

    Detox, what are you looking for specifically? Attacks against the website? Like SQL-Injection attempts? Or attacks against the server i.e. buffer overflow, known application vulnerability attempts, etc. that might be in your site logs (instead of the server log)? I am certain there is a plethora of Perl code out there to do this...I might have some laying around here. I'll go look, but give us a more specific idea of what you want to find. "Looking for an intrusion detection script for a website" is kind of broad.

    /* Edit: what format? Apache? 1.3x, 2.x? IIS? */

    OS: RedHat Linux
    Apache 2.0
    PHP 4.3.2

    I'm looking for a script that can go through the log files and find password mismatches, cgi vulnerably scans as well as unicode attacks. Things of that nature. Then grep this info and display an HTML generated page of the results. I know there are a lot of command line tools that will do this. I'm more interested in catting the results out to a webpage. Maybe even use the GD library to make a nice graph of the results.

    I thought we used something more obscure, but I guess not...our webserver admin guru swears by and uses AWStats with some scripting and such he's added for specific reports.

    Sorry, thought I had more info... a quick look doesn't show everything you've mentioned, but it was cursory...should give you a starting point for research tho.

    yeah awstats is probably not exactly what your looking for detox but if you like hacking scripts, then awstats is what your lookin for .... You just may need to learn how apache is writing its logs

    Do you have permission to install SNORT/other IDS? Snort or any other IDS software is what you need to do what you want..

    Yep. Snort in combination with Base, Acid, Snort Report, Snort-rep and/or SnortSnarf.
