Snort 2.4.1 Available

[Jennifer Steffens <jennifer.steffens () sourcefire com>]

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

Cheers,
