Troubleshooting
Problem
The option, "Ensure the detected event is part of an offense" does not prevent events from being added to the new offense when the rule has a stateful.
Symptom
Offenses generated by stateful rules include both CRE events and events detected by the tests when the wanted behavior is to include CRE events only.
A stateful rule is one such as "when at least this many events are seen with the same event properties in this many minutes"

Example of an affected rule:
We show how to apply the work-around to this affected rule in the Resolving the Problem section.
- Rule tests:
- when the event category for the event is one of the following Exploit.Misc Exploit
- when at least 3 events are seen with the same Source IP and different Event Name in 30 minutes

- Rule Action: Do not check "Ensure the detected event is part of an offense"
- Rule Response: Check "Dispatch New Event" and "Ensure the dispatched event is part of an offense"
