Cisco Talos just released the latest SNORTⓇ rule update.
Thursday's release includes protection against the exploitation of a recently disclosed vulnerability in Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software and Firepower Threat Defense Software. An adversary could exploit this vulnerability to cause a denial-of-service condition on a client's VPN connection if they're using an affected version of the Cisco Secure Client.
Here's a breakdown of this rule release:
| Shared object rules | Modified shared object rules | New rules | Modified rules |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3 | 0 | 6 | 3 |
Talos has added and modified multiple rules in the browser-ie, file-other and server-webapp rule sets to provide coverage for emerging threats from these technologies. You can subscribe to Talos' newest rule detection functionality for as low as $29 a year with a personal account. Be sure and see our business pricing as well here. The Snort 3 release is also here after years of development and improvements. Upgrade here.
