The classification.config file in the snort source tarball changed in 2.9.4.5

capitalization, but it also removes 3 classifications that were introduced in
2.9.1 (file-format, malware-cnc, and client-side-exploit):

This latest classification.config causes snort to exit during startup when it
encounters a (custom) rule that uses one of the now-missing classifications.
Will you restore the previous classification.config (from 2.9.4.1) in the
next release, or are we supposed to modify our rules?

easier would be to modify your classification.config file ;)

FWIW: we only update ours when new classifications are added...
