hello
i am encountering runaway uri buffers when inspecting packets with non ascii characters in the uri
what basically happens is that for some reason if the uri contains non printable letters (hebrew ansi from IE for 
instance) the uri buffer gets filled with header data resulting in false positives
i haven't tested the buffers using the methods described in the recent blog post but have tested it with custom rules 
and was able to recreate the bug
is this a known bug or some configuration option i'm missing?
 i can post the test pcaps and rules if needed
