Bernhard,

We do not manage the emerging threats ruleset.  Snort-sigs is the mailing list for the official Snort ruleset.  
Emerging Threats is managed by a third party.

Hi,

I encountered severe false positives with the
https://rules.emergingthreats.net/blockrules/emerging-tor.rules
as described in
https://lists.emergingthreats.net/pipermail/emerging-sigs/2018-July/028863.html

unfortunately nobody seemed to fix it yet, so I'd kindly ask snort to
disable use of these broken rules (e.g. in VRT Community) until they are
fixed.
This will help to improve the life of innocent pool.ntp.org contributors
and tor router operators.


Ciao
Bernhard M. Wiedemann
