Exists some important bugs resolved by 2.9.4.6 and 2.9.4.5 release:

2013-04-18 Steven Sturges <[email protected]>
Snort 2.9.4.6
    * src/build.h:
      updating build number to 73

    * doc/README.counts, doc/snort_manual.pdf, doc/snort_manual.tex,
      src/decode.c, src/parser.c, src/snort.h:
      Added config tunnel_verdicts and tunnel bypass for whitelist and
      blacklist verdicts for 6in4 or 4in6 encapsulated traffic.

    * src/preprocessors/spp_frag3.c:
      Don't update IP options length and count in frag3 after allocating
      option buffer when receiving duplicate 0 offset fragments with IP
      options.

2013-03-20 Steven Sturges <[email protected]>
Snort 2.9.4.5
    * src/build.h:
      updating build number to 71

    * src/preprocessors/Stream5/snort_stream5_tcp.c:
      prevent pruning when dup'ing a seglist node to avoid broken
      flushed packets

    * src/detection-plugins/detection_options.c:
      recursively search patterns within the HTTP uri
      buffers until the buffer ends.

    * src/preprocessors/HttpInspect/: client/hi_client.c,
      client/hi_client_norm.c, include/hi_client.h:
      Remove proxy information from the normalized URI buffer.  Thanks
      to L0rd Ch0de1m0rt for reporting the issue.

    * src/: control/sfcontrol.c, preprocessors/Stream5/snort_stream5_tcp.c:
      fix logging of unified2 packet data when alerting on a packet containing
      multiple HTTP PDUs

And yes, I need to tune snort.conf needed to correctly monitor my network ...
