SMTP PreProc Woes: msg#00017

Subject: SMTP PreProc Woes

FYI: I seem to be getting a lot of false "smtp: Attempted specific
command buffer overflow" alerts when using the libsf_smtp_preproc in
snort 2.6.0. I am using the std config options.

preprocessor smtp: \
ports { 25 } \
inspection_type stateful \
normalize cmds \
normalize_cmds { EXPN VRFY RCPT } \
alt_max_command_line_len 260 { MAIL } \
alt_max_command_line_len 300 { RCPT } \
alt_max_command_line_len 500 { HELP HELO ETRN } \
alt_max_command_line_len 255 { EXPN VRFY }

For now I've added no_alerts to my config. If you need any
information, please let me know.
