Re: Is Snort3 no longer being developed? Oleksii Shumeiko -X (oshumeik - SOFTSERVE INC at Cisco) via Snort-devel (Aug 21)
Hi

Thank you for the question and your interest in Snort3 project.

Snort3 status has not changed. Releases are delayed for a good reason. Hopefully, they will resume in autumn. However,
exact date is not set yet.
I will ask around if we can share more details.

Thanks,
Alexey

Is Snort3 no longer being developed? Dheeraj Gupta via Snort-devel (Aug 20)
Hi,

The official Snort3 github repo has had no new commits since almost 4
months. Last commit was on 24-Apr-2026 (Snort3 rel 3.12.2.0). Has Cisco
made any announcement regarding change in status of Snort3 project which I
may have missed?

Thanks,
Dheeraj
