[Devil-linux-software] Snort 2.9.0.1 has been released [freshmeat.net]

[freshmeat.net <no...@fr...>]

Dear freshmeat.net subscriber,

rrioux just announced version 2.9.0.1 of Snort on freshmeat.net.

The changes are as follows:

This release fixes maximum flowbits configuration parsing to specify the number
of bits in accordance with the Snort manual, rather than the number of bytes. If
you have 'config flowbits_size' in your snort.conf, double check that it has the
correct setting. It fixes a packet size issue with the IPQ and NFQ DAQs. It
fixes an issue with Stream5 overlap limit processing. It updates the version of
LibPCRE bundled with the Windows installer. This update fixes a bug that caused
some PCRE matches to fail on Windows.

Project description:

Snort is a network intrusion detection and prevention system. It is the most
widely deployed technology of its kind in the world. It performs detection using
a variety of methods including rules-based detection, anomaly detection, and
heuristic analysis of network traffic. Its rules language is open source and
available to the public as well.
