New-Release on Inliniac

Suricata 3.0 is out!

Wed, 27 Jan 2016 15:33:27 +0000

Today, almost 2 years after the release of Suricata 2.0, we released 3.0! This new version of Suricata improves performance, scalability, accuracy and general robustness. Next to this, it brings a lot of new features.

New features are too numerous to mention here, but I’d like to highlight a few:

netmap support: finally a high speed capture method for our FreeBSD friends, IDS and IPS
multi-tenancy: single instance, multiple detection configs
JSON stats: making it much easier to graph the stats in ELK, etc
Much improved Lua support: many more fields/protocols available, output scripts

Check the full list here in the announcement: http://suricata-ids.org/2016/01/27/suricata-3-0-available/

Suricata 2.0 and beyond

Tue, 25 Mar 2014 14:37:46 +0000

Today I finally released Suricata 2.0. The 2.0 branch opened in December 2012. In the little over a year that it’s development lasted, we have closed 183 tickets. We made 1174 commits, with the following stats:

582 files changed, 94782 insertions(+), 63243 deletions(-)

So, a significant update! In total, 17 different people made commits. I’m really happy with how much code and features were contributed. When starting Suricata this was what I really hoped for, and it seems to be working!

Vuurmuur 0.8beta4 released

Fri, 31 Aug 2012 13:20:08 +0000

I just released a new Vuurmuur version. The last release was in 2009, so it has been a while.

This release adds basic IPv6 support. The state of the IPv6 support is incomplete, but quite functional.

Supported features are:

- rules generation - log viewing - setting IPv6 addresses in hosts, networks and interfaces

Unsupported features are:

- connection viewer - NAT - blocklist - IPv6 address to Vuurmuur name conversion in the log

Suricata 1.3.1 is out

Tue, 21 Aug 2012 10:48:27 +0000

Since this morning Suricata 1.3.1 is available. The main focus of this release was fixing a number of bugs. See the list of closed bugs, the release notes and the upgrade instructions.

As a bonus, I applied a set of patches by Eric Leblond. Eric has been trying to push AF_PACKET to the limit and has achieved some spectacular results with it. Read all about his quest to get to 10Gbps here on Eric’s blog.

Snort_inline 2.6.1.5 released

Fri, 08 Jun 2007 12:55:29 +0000

Finally, after many months of development and testing, Snort_inline 2.6.1.5 has been released. It’s the first stable release in almost a year and also the first stable release based on Snort 2.6. William sent the announcement:

snort_inline-2.6.1.5 released

List,

I know it has been a long time since we have had a non-beta release,
but what can I say? Victor and I have both been busy in our personal
and professional lives. If you have been running the version of code
in SVN, there are no major updates with this release other than a
memleak fix for stream4inline. I don't think this gets said often
enough, so I would like to thank Sourcefire for all the hard work they
put into snort and the snort rule sets for which I and the rest of the
community greatly benefit.

Regards,

Will
