Snort 2.9.2.3 pkg v. 2.3.0 Issue Thread
-
Aside from the problems listed in the original post, version 2.3.0 is running smoothly for myself. For a quick "blocked alerts description" fix see post 274405.
Thanks for the hard work Ermal!

Cron Job Issue:
After every install/reinstall, you have to save the Global Settings and Interface page (with Blocked Enabled) for the Cron job to be created. Is there a way to fix it so the package does a check automatically to see if that setting is set?Maybe -if- the Global settings was saved, after an update of the package, automatically updates the rules before starting Snort.

If you have more than a single snort interface running, only the message of the 1st instance can be cleared (already described somewhere else). I noticed some code changes in snort_alert.php, but the code does not work correctly.
It looks as if the state of the settings are not properly maintained. $instanceid does receive the correct value, but after hitting the clear-button the value is back to its default value 0 before the clear action gets executed, so other interfaces never get a chance to get rid of their messages (to study this behavior I am dumping some diagnostics into a temporary file).
Not being familiar with php, I'd say the problem is due to the way php scripts get initialized and executed and after hitting a button like "Clear", your're essentially back to a fresh page. With the proper knowledge this can probably be fixed easily.

With this version the Emerging Threats rules are working for me, but the Snort rules don't.
I did some tests with the p2p rules, and the Snort rules neither generated alerts nor did blocking work.

In 2.4.0 all these issues should be solved apart the colors in the interface page

That is rather awkward.
Can you identify the line that caused that? In alerts? -
the alert at 14:24.
