Package: snort-common Version: 2.8.5.2-2 Severity: serious Tag: pending Reviewing today the patch introduced in snort-common's preinst has two bugs that have the following consequences:
- the /etc/snort/database.conf file created gets overwritten with the contents of snort.conf and the resulting configuration prevents the snort daemon from starting. - the use of bash's echo when parsing /etc/default/snort.conf generates config files with errors I have generated new packages fixing these bugs and will upload them as soon as I recover my internet connectivity.
