Fixed header files to avoid conflicts with system files on BSD for
IPv6 data structures.
Added code to prevent URI-related alerts from firing when the
body is being normalized.
Make Stream5 the default stream engine.
Add alert for multiple GRE encapsulations.
Added ability for Snort to track fragmented ICMPv6 to check for the
remote BSD exploit (Bugtraq ID 22901, CVE-2007-1365).
Code cleanup, change malloc/calloc to SnortAlloc, use safer functions
SnortSnprintf, SnortStrncpy, etc. Check pointers before use.
Additional updates for bounds checking.
And many more . . . check the ChangeLog for all the details

the owner of all installed files is a non-root user. This change
affects most packages that require special users or groups by making
them use the specified unprivileged user and group instead.
(1) Add two new variables PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS to
unprivileged.mk. These two variables are lists of other bmake
variables that define package-specific users and groups. Packages
that have user-settable variables for users and groups, e.g. apache
and APACHE_{USER,GROUP}, courier-mta and COURIER_{USER,GROUP},
etc., should list these variables in PKG_USERS_VARS and PKG_GROUPS_VARS
so that unprivileged.mk can know to set them to ${UNPRIVILEGED_USER}
and ${UNPRIVILEGED_GROUP}.
(2) Modify packages to use PKG_GROUPS_VARS and PKG_USERS_VARS.

Snort v2.6.1.4 includes detection functionality for a BSD IPv6 fragmentation
overflow, and addresses a number of potential security-related issues in
Snort as reported by customers, uncovered by internal investigations, and
through third-party code audits.

as the INSTALL and DEINSTALL scripts no longer distinguish between
the two types of files. Drop SUPPORT_FILES{,_PERMS} and modify the
packages in pkgsrc accordingly.
|
|
If you are using this package make note of the distribution change
mentioned below. I have update the MESSAGE to inform users of this and
there is now also a net/snort-rules package with the community rules.
> [*] Distribution Change
> * Rules are no longer distributed as part of the Snort releases, they are
> available as a separate download from snort.org. This was done for
> three reasons:
> 1) To better manage the new rules licensing.
> 2) To reduce the size of the engine download.
> 3) To move the thousands of documentation files for the rules into
> the rules tarballs. If you've ever checked Snort out of CVS you'll
> know why this is a Good Thing.
>
> [*] New additions
> * Added new IP defragmentation preprocessor, Frag3. The frag3 preprocessor
> is a target-based IP defragmentation module, and is intended as a
> replacement for the frag2 module. Check out the README.frag3 for full
> info on this new preprocessor.
>
> * Libprelude support has been added (enable with --enable-prelude).
> Thanks Yoann Vandoorselaere!
>
> * An "ftpbounce" rule detection plugin was added for easier detection of
> FTP bounce attacks.
>
> * Added a new Snort config option, "ignore_ports," to ignore packets
> based on port number. This is similar to bpf filters, but done within
> snort.conf.
>
> [*] Improvements
> * Snort startup messages printed in syslog now contain a PID before each
> entry. Thanks Sekure for initially bringing this up.
>
> * Stream4: Performance improvements.
>
> * Stream4: Added 'max_session_limit' option which limits number of
> concurrent sessions tracked. Added favor_old/favor_new options that
> affect order in which packets are put together for reassembly.
>
> * Stream4: New configuration options to manage flushpoints for improved
> anti-evasion. The flush_behavior option selects flushpoint management
> mode. New flush_base, flush_range, and flush_seed manage randomized
> flushing. Check out the snort.conf file for full config data on the
> new flush options.
>
> * Added two more alerts for BackOrifice client and server packets. This
> allows specific alerts to be suppressed.
>
> * PerfMon preprocessor updated to include more detailed stats for rebuilt
> packets (applayer, wire, fragmented & TCP). Also added 'atexitonly'
> option that dumps stats at exit of snort, and command line -Z flag to
> specify the file to which stats are logged.
>
> * Added new Http Inspect config item, "tab_uri_delimiter," which if
> specified, lets a tab character (0x09) act as the delimiter for a URI.
>
> * Added a '-G' command line flag to snort that specifies the Snort
> instance log identifier. It takes a single argument that can be either
> hex (prefaced with 0x) or decimal. The unified log files will include
> the instance ID when the -G flag is used.
>
> * "Same SRC/DST" (sid 527) and "Loopback Traffic" (sid 528) are now
> handled in the IP decoder. Those sids are now considered obsolete.
>
> * Http_Inspect "flow_depth" option now accepts a -1 value which tells
> Snort to ignore all server-side traffic.
>
> * RPMs have been updated to be more portable, and also now include a
> "--with inline" option for those wanting to build Inline RPMs. Thanks
> Daniel Wittenberg and JP Vossen for your help!
>
> * Many, many bug fixes have also gone into this release, please see the
> ChangeLog for details.

And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d
which was the default before.
This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also.
So add to each corresponding PLIST as required.
This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April.
Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere
and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

2005-03-10 - Snort 2.3.2 Released
* Removed end-of-line parser fix in favor of completely reworking
this at the next parser overhaul.
2005-03-09 - Snort 2.3.1 Released
* Fixed issue where the number of flowbits were too small. Thanks Marc
Norton for the fix.
* Fixed parsing of comments at end of line in config file. In
snort.conf, anything that follows a # on a line is considered a
comment. Thanks Steve Sturges for the fix.
* Fixed alignment issue causing sfPortscan to crash on Solaris/HPUX.
Thanks Andy Mullican for the fix. Thanks Senthil Prabu.S and
Jonathan Miner for working with us on this.

2005-01-25 - Snort 2.3.0 Final Released
* Fixed issue with sfPortscan reporting incorrect IP datagram length.
Thanks Jon Hart for the test case and finding the bug, and Marc Norton
for resolving the issue.
* Threshold/Suppression now prints properly when logging to syslog.
Thanks Sekure for pointing out the problem. Thanks Steve Sturges for
working on the fix.
* Threshold memcap argument now correctly handles non-integer input.
Thanks nnposter for the patch.
* Fixed issue reported by Allan Jensen, where on MacOS X, ppp links were
not decoded properly. Thanks Dan Roelker for the fix.
* Snort manual and FAQ are updated for 2.3. Thanks Jen Harvey for your
work on putting it all together.
2004-12-15 - Snort 2.3.0 RC2 Released
* Small performance improvement to arpspoof and also fixed a problem
where the list of configured IP/MAC entries would contain only one
entry and leaked memory (Jeff Nathan).
* Fixed a problem affecting MacOS X where linking may fail with
non-standard libraries when global symbols are encountered multiple
times (Jeff Nathan).
* Ignore RST|ACK midstream pickup case so we don't get an evasive TCP
alerts. Thanks for the report, Sekure. Thanks Dan Roelker for the fix.
* Moved CheckLogDir() to after parsing snort.conf (for IDS mode) so the
logdir config will work if the default or command-line logdir does not
exist on the system. Thanks Dan Roelker.
* Fixed bug when setting the doe_ptr on a successful pcre match.
It is now set relative to base_ptr. Thanks Steve Sturges for the
fix.
* Added from_beginning and multiplier options for byte_jump.
from_beginning skips bytes from the beginning of the content,
instead of from the location immediately following the number
of bytes to skip. multiplier takes a numeric argument, and
skips x times that number of bytes. Thanks again to Steve Sturges.
* In "fast" output, now log only actual packet contents when UDP
data length is greater than actual data length. Thanks Brian
Caswell for spotting this, and Andrew Mullican for working on the fix.
* Please check the ChangeLog for further details.
2004-11-18 - Snort 2.3.0 RC1 Released
* Added IPS functionality from Snort-Inline. A big thanks to the
Snort-Inline guys (Jed Haile, Rob McMillen, William Metcalf, and Victor
Julien). Also, Thanks Dan Roelker for doing the integrating of
Snort-Inline into the official Snort project.
* Added new portscan detector. The design and implementation was headed
up by Dan Roelker, and included Marc Norton and Jeremy Hewlett.
* Numerous changes for better 64bit Snort support from Jeremy Hewlett and
Marc Norton. Additionally, an --enable-64bit-gcc option was added to
configure. However, there are still some memory alignment issues to
work out before 64bit mode is fully functional, patches are welcomed.
Thanks Chris Baker for doing 64bit testing.
* Added not_established keyword to the flow detection option. This allows
snort to do dynamic firewall rulesets. Experimental for now.
* Added an enforce_state keyword to stream4 so we won't pick up midstream
sessions. This works well for asynchronous links and also for
just monitoring legitimate traffic.
* Relocated ./contrib files to http://www.snort.org/dl/contrib as many
are not maintained by Sourcefire and are out of date. The rpm and
schema files have been relocated in their respective 'rpm' and 'schemas'
directories under the snort parent directory.
* perfmonitor config line can now be configured with "accumulate" or
"reset." Thanks Marc Norton for the feature, and Barry Basselgia for
pointing out the issue. Thanks Scott Dexter and Andreas Ostling for
doing some initial testing.
* Fixed 64-bit bug in sfmemcap.c found and tested by Ryan Matteson
and Clay McClure. Thanks guys.
* Fixed reference times to match log time for first packet, for an event
generated by a reassembled packet. Incremented event ID to give
unique ID for each packet. Also made unified logging compatible with
Windows. Thanks Andrew Mullican for the fix.
* Fixed linux perfmonitoring stats for the 2.6 kernel. Thanks to
everyone that reported this bug. Thanks Dan Roelker for the fix.
* Get thresholding/suppression to work for alerts that do not
contain an ip header (primarily decode alerts). Thanks
Brian Caswell.
* Fix conditions where snort would log double web alerts that
contained only content options (no uricontents). Thanks to kawa for
finding and reporting this bug.
* Fix suppression/thresholding bug for non-rule alerts. Thanks to
Alex Butcher for reporting it to us.
* Many other bug fixes, please check the ChangeLog for details.

under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR.
This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others.
Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism
(as requested by wiz).

So fix the references using RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR to be
${PREFIX}/${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}.
This should have no changes to use before.
Please note that the MESSAGE files in most cases are wrong in the
first place. We have automated mechanisms and could have an automated
message for explaining rc.d script usage. (This is something to do!)

- ok'ed snj@, wiz@
- Install database scripts which goes a part-way to addressing PR 18996
Updated database schema diagram from Chris Reid. Schema can be found in
./doc/snort_schema_v106.pdf
Added --include-pcre* configuration option to help cross compiling. Thanks
Erik de Castro Lopo.
Fixed thresholding/suppression issue with queuing multiple events per packet.
Thanks Andreas Ostling.
When a rebuilt stream causes an alert, log out the original packets instead of
the rebuilt packet. Thanks sekure@gmail.com for the report.
Turned off http_inspect alerts that were causing false positives in the preset
webserver profiles (Thanks Dan Roelker).
Turn off encoding alerts in HTTP parameter field. The parameter field is still
normalized, it just doesn't alert. This helps reduce alerts that are generated
from complex parameter queries (Thanks Dan Roelker).
Fixed memory leak in "fast" output. Thanks for your bug report
sekure@gmail.com.
Clear error code which under Windows was causing a subsequent false failure in
parsing threshold rules. (Thanks to Rich Adamson)

which installs to ${RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR}. But the MESSAGE
referred to wrong hard-coded location if the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR
was not the default. So use RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR instead.
PKGREVISION not bumped because if someone had changed
RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR before recent change of autoregistration
of rc.d script in PLIST, then it could not have been packaged
in first place.
Note that this commit does not imply that the MESSAGE is correct.
In some cases, the MESSAGE is clearly wrong such as suggesting
running the rc.d script from the example directory (which will work
although).
