Snort-4.1.6
An update for the Snort package has been posted for the RELEASE branch of pfSense Plus and CE and on the 2.7 DEVEL branch. The update is not yet available on the 22.05 DEVEL branch as it is frozen for final testing. Later, once 22.05 goes RELEASE, the updated Snort package will be available there as well.There are no changes in the GUI for this update. The update simply brings in the latest version from upstream of the Snort binary portion of the package. The new binary version is 2.9.20. Release Notes for the binary update can be found here: https://snort.org/downloads/snort/release_notes_2.9.20.txt.

Thank you! -
I'm still waiting around to update Suricata. The Netgate team pulled in the latest 6.0.5 Suricata version in the pfSense CE 2.7 DEVEL branch. The pfSense CE and Plus RELEASE branch is still running the 6.0.4 Suricata version.
There is really not a ton of changes between those two that would impact typical pfSense users. I'm monitoring the progress on 7.0rc1 and 6.0.6 from the upstream GitHub repo.
