Description: 
 snort      - Flexible Network Intrusion Detection System
Closes: 320920 320920 323985 404991 407421 435417
Changes: 
 snort (2.7.0-2) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * Fix generation of the common snort binary, which was distributed without
     prelude support.
   * Fix location of dynamic engines in snort.conf
   * Change signatures 1443 and 1444 since there was an error in their
     definition ( Cannot use 'rawbytes' and 'http_uri' as modifiers for the
     same "content" nor use 'rawbytes' with "uricontent". )
 .
 snort (2.7.0-1) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release (Closes: #435417, #404991, #320920, #323985)
      - Fixes DOS attack: CVE-2006-6931 - "Backtracking Algorithmic Complexity"
        DoS against IDS engine (Closes: #407421)
   * Introduce all the rules available from the 2.4 release which are GPL and
     are non-VRT certified, that is, all rules which are outside of the range
     [3,465-1,000,000]. This amounts to a total of 3935 rules (820 of which are
     Community released).
   * In order to handle rulesets with mixed GPL and non-GPL rules two scripts
     have been made available in the source rules/ subdirectory:
         - remove-non-gpl.pl - Given a rules file removes all rules outside
           the above range
         - purge-non-gpl.sh - Given a directory dumps on the local directory
           only rules outside this range.
     In order to limit maintainer overhead the header for modified rulesets has
     not been changed.
   * Include the VRT license file. This file is kept for reference under the
     rules/ dir, although *no* rule in this package is under that non-free license.
   * Include a NEWS.Debian item describing the license change and the rules
     distributed within this package.
     not in the database packages (Closes: #320920)
   * As a consequence of the above Build-Depend on libprelude-dev, iptables-dev
   * Provide support for Prelude in both snort and snort-inline packages but
   * The examples are now included in the -common package instead of having
     them  in all the binary packages
 .
   This package provides support to make an experimental separate binary
   package for inline support: snort-inline, which most of the configuration is
   shared with the snort binary package but the PPP related options have been
   removed. However, snort-inline does not support libnet 1.1 so we cannot
   provide it yet. This has been changed in Snort's code but it's far from
   complete:
        - Make the configure script work with libnet 1.1. 
        - Port parts of the API (some declarations) to 1.1
 .
 snort (2.3.3-15) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * Include all the community signatures available as of today into the
     snort-signatures package. This means 820 new signatures go in.
   * Sync mappings:
     * Updated the gen-msg.map under rules/ with the maps under etc/ 
     * Updated the sid-msg.map under etc/ with the maps under rules/
