Software Release - psad-2.0.1
12 December, 2006
The 2.0.1 release of psad is ready for download. This is mostly a bugfix release to correct some issue with respect to how psad modifies the @INC directory list to import psad-specific perl modules. There is one feature addition though - psad now adds a new keyword psad_ip_len to the Snort rules language to allow the length field in the IP header to be explicitly tested. This made it possible to add a new signature for the Nachi worm to the /etc/psad/signatures file. Here is the ChangeLog:- Added Nachi worm reconnaisannce icmp signature.
- Added the psad_ip_len signature keyword to allow the length field in the IP header to be explicitly tested.
- Bugfix for inappropriately removing some directories in @INC when splicing in psad perl module paths.
- Switched nf2csv installation path in install.pl to /usr/bin/.
