Hey Everyone,

Snort 2.4.1 has been released and addresses a bug in TCP SACK processing
that could result in a DoS for some text based logging methods. In
addition, this release includes changes and fixes for several issues
reported by the community, such as:
     * Pcap logging is now the default for Snort at startup, use
       "-K ascii"
       to revert to old behavior.
     * Change ip_proto to ip for portscan configuration. Thanks David
       Bianco
       for pointing this out.
     * Added support for new OpenBSD pflog format. Older pflog format,
       OpenBSD 3.3 and earlier is still supported. Thanks Breno Leitao
       and Christian Reis for the patch.
     * ...

Snort 2.4.1 can be found at
http://www.snort.org/dl/current/snort-2.4.1.tar.gz. Please remember that
rules are no longer included with releases but can be downloaded at
http://www.snort.org/pub-bin/downloads.cgi.

If you have any questions, let us know at snort-teamsourcefire.com.

Cheers,
Jennifer
