Description:
Marcin Zgorecki has reported a vulnerability in Snort, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the printing of TCP/IP options. This can be exploited to cause an unspecified DoS by sending a specially crafted packet.
Successful exploitation requires that snort is configured with "FAST" output or verbose mode.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 2.2.10. Other versions may also be affected.
