CVE-2024-45795: Suricata detect/datasets: reachable assertion with unimplemented rule option
First published: Wed Oct 16 2024(Updated: )
Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. Prior to version 7.0.7, rules using datasets with the non-functional / unimplemented "unset" option can trigger an assertion during traffic parsing, leading to denial of service. This issue is addressed in 7.0.7. As a workaround, use only trusted and well tested rulesets.
