Hi Snort Team,

Hope you are doing well.

I have a database of 1000 URLs that I want to block using Snort. Do I need
to create 1000 separate rules to block each of them? Wouldn't there be a
performance hit if I have a separate rule for each one of them(consider my
database increases to 10K URLs)? Any alternatives that could achieve my
aim?

FYI, this is how my rule looks today:
reject tcp any any -> any any (msg:"Blacklisted URL"; content:"youtube.com
";
http_uri; react: msg;)

Regards,
Rishabh Shah.

I'm running snort version 2.9.7.0 pkg v3.2.3 (this is pfsense version
2.2.1).

I'm getting an alert for some of my machines that have Java installed (ET
POLICY Vulnerable Java Version 1.8.x Detected).  These are Windows 8.1
machines and I verified that I have the latest version of Java.  Java
version "1.8.0_40" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_40-b26)

Any idea why snort would trigger this alert with this version of Java?
