snort-2.6.1.tar.gz

Posted Nov 17, 2006

Authored by Martin Roesch | Site snort.org

Snort is an open source network intrusion detection system, capable of performing real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on IP networks. It can perform protocol analysis, content searching/matching and can be used to detect a variety of attacks and probes, such as buffer overflows, stealth port scans, CGI attacks, SMB probes, OS fingerprinting attempts, and much more. Includes real time alerting, incorporating alerting mechanisms for syslog, a user specified file, a UNIX socket, or WinPopup messages via smbclient.

Changes: New pattern matcher with a significantly reduced memory footprint. Introduction of stream5 for experimental use. Improvements to stream4, including UDP session tracking and optimizations for the reassembly buffer. Handling for reassembly of SMB fragmented data in DCE/RPC. An ssh preprocessor for experimental use. Updated Snort decoder that can decode GRE encapsulated packets. Output plugin to allow Snort to configure Aruba access control. Bug fixes and performance improvements.
