Package: snort
Version: 2.7.0-22
Severity: important
I have had snort installed for several years without any issues. The last
update has changed snort's behavior so now it is utilizing all available CPU
cycles
and memory usage. I set the lowmem setting which has helped the memory, but I
haven't figured out how to lower the CPU load. I have another identical server
running ubuntu gutsy with the ubuntu 2.7.0-6 snort version, without any
noticable CPU or memory issues.
I was also concerned that an older configuration file might cause issues, so I
purged snort and associated packages, removed the older configuration files and
reinstalled snort, with the same behavior.
