Several issues have been found in suricata, the next Generation Intrusion Detection and Prevention Tool. They are related to bypass of HTTP-based signature, mishandling of multiple fragmented packets, logic errors, infinite loops, buffer overflows, unintended file access and using large amount of memory.

For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version 1:6.0.1-3+deb11u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your suricata packages.
