in thread Snort data_payload decoding

[id://ikegami], I tried using MIME::Base64 to decode the stirng, and I got the string:
Mm5M8}^`4M6ӏ;ߝ6]4m5MMM: ӭ5m5m6

From the string:
303D02010004087333357537316162A02E0204870BAF350201000201003020300E060A +2B060102010202010A050500300E060A2B0601020102020110050500

Ideally, I want it to look like something like this:
000 : 30 3D 02 01 00 04 08 73 33 35 75 37 31 61 62 A0 0=.....s35u71a +b. 010 : 2E 02 04 87 0B AF 35 02 01 00 02 01 00 30 20 30 ......5......0 + 0 020 : 0E 06 0A 2B 06 01 02 01 02 02 01 0A 05 05 00 30 ...+.......... +.0 030 : 0E 06 0A 2B 06 01 02 01 02 02 01 10 05 05 00 ...+.......... +.


These are all from the same packet, the problem is that I can't pass the preformated test from OpenAanval, so I have to dig through the raw DB.

    oops! you're trying to decode! Switch unpack for pack. It's odd to decode before putting it into an email. Is binary data even allowed in emails?

    while (...) { my $encoded = pack('H*', $rows[0]); my $raw_length = length($rows[0]); # Formerly named $ea ...do something with these vars... }
      Is binary data even allowed in emails?

      Don't think so - if it were, we would not need Base64 encoding and all that tricky Mime business:)
