Will there be no Update for existing distributions as it is not a minor fix, but an important update for everyone using snort on a box. With sendmail the reaction was quite fast, with snort the problem wasn't even mentioned here (with the workaround). I just wonder a little bit about your answert that the next release will contain the fixed snort-rpm. Hmmm ... thinking about priorities .... In security! Uwe

Together with the Sendmail Remote Buffer Overflow there has been announced a Snort vulnerablity. But until now no one
mentioned this on
the list, nor is an update availble.
When can we expect an updated Snort 1.9.1 RPM?
This version will be shipped with the upcoming SuSE Linux distribution.
