Suricata 3.1 released!
We’re proud to announce Suricata 3.1.
This release brings significant improvements on the performance side:
- Hyperscan integration for Multi Pattern Matcher and Single Pattern Matcher. If installed, Hyperscan is now the default.
- Rewrite of the detection engine, simplifying rule grouping. This improves performance, while reducing memory usage and start up time in many scenarios.
Packet capture got a lot of attention:
- AF_PACKET support for tpacket-v3 (experimental)
- NETMAP usability improvements, especially on FreeBSD
Config:
- Reorganised default configuration layout provides for intuitive and easy set up.
This release also comes with libhtp 0.5.20, in which we address a number of issues Steffen Ullrich of HTTP Evader reported.
A new keyword ‘tls_sni’ was added, including MPM support. It allows matching on the TLS SNI field.
Other than that, lots of clean ups and optimizations:
- locking has been much simplified
- TCP and IPv6 decoder optimizations
- unittest clean ups
- AFL fuzz testing options were added
Have a look at the full change log
Changes since 3.1RC1
- AF_PACKETv2 is the default as v3 is still experimental
- NFQ runmode workers was fixed
