CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT
| PACKAGE | : | ucd-snmp |
| SUMMARY | : | Remote heap overflow vulnerability |
| DATE | : | 2003-07-15 15:03:00 |
| ID | : | CLA-2003:696 |
| RELEVANT RELEASES | : | 7.0, 8 |
DESCRIPTION
ucd-snmp is an implementation and a set of tools to deal with the
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which is used for remote
administration and monitoring of network devices and services.
Axioma Security Research found[1] a remote heap overflow
vulnerability[2] in snmpnetstat (a tool used to retrieve
information about a remote host). When a list of interfaces is
requested, a malicious server can return information in a way that
will cause a heap overflow in snmpnetstat.
A remote atacker able to control a snmp server can exploit this
vulnerability to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the
user running snmpnetstat.
SOLUTION
All ucd-snmp users should upgrade.
