YARA-X 1.22.1 is a bugfix release containing two fixes. YARA 4.6.0 was also released, but it does not include the YARA-X addition of built-in functions for reading 64-bit integers (int64, int64be, uint64, uint64be). Didier Stevens, a senior handler at SANS Internet Storm Center, argues that YARA-X has effectively replaced YARA.
