Subject: [SUSPECTED SPAM] [Snort-devel] possible segfault on snort-2.9.x.x

Discover possible segfault in http pre-processor. Please consider below patch to resolve.

static inline int hi_eo_generate_event(HI_SESSION *Session, int iAlert)
{
     if(iAlert && !(Session->norm_flags & HI_BODY) &&
-       !Session->server_conf->no_alerts)
+       Session->server_conf && !Session->server_conf->no_alerts)
     {
         return HI_BOOL_TRUE;
     }



Flow from "checkCacheFlowTimeout" function, there is a chance that server_conf is null as Session pointer is pointing 
to static variable and current processing packet is non http.
