[Michael R. <mb...@ci...>]

Hi All,

fwsnort-1.6.6 has been released:

https://github.com/mrash/fwsnort/releases/tag/1.6.6
http://www.cipherdyne.org/fwsnort/download/

Here is the full ChangeLog:

    - (Robert Foreman) Whitelist IP addresses for Emerging Threats ruleset

      downloads (96.43.137.99, 204.12.217.19).

    - Update to IPTables::Parse-1.6 which contains a fix for a local-only

      vulnerability dealing with temporary file handling. Details can be
found

      here: https://github.com/mrash/IPTables-Parse/blob/master/Changes

    - Fixed an issue for Snort rules against all IP protocols should be

      translated with the iptables '-p all' argument instead of '-p ip'.
This

      issue was reported by Github user mgaulton.

    - Added support for using the 'ip' command for acquiring IP addresses

      assigned to local interfaces. The 'ifconfig' command is still
supported,

      but 'ip' is preferred when it is available. Issue #9 reported by

      'mgaulton'.

    - Updated to bundle the latest Emerging Threats rule set.
