Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-07-11 15:21:08 UTC

Suricata is a network Intrusion Detection System, Intrusion Prevention System and Network Security Monitoring engine. A memory allocation failure due to `http.memcap` being reached leads to a NULL-ptr reference leading to a crash. Upgrade to 7.0.6.
