Security Advisory - RHSA-2001:163-20
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Updated ucd-snmp packages available
Description:
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) enables
monitoring and configuration of network nodes.
The Oulu University Secure Programming Group performed
a vulnerability assessment of various SNMP implementations through syntax
testing and test-suite creation.
The test-suite showed several failures in the ucd-snmp tools in version
4.2.2 and earlier. These vulnerabilities can cause denial-of-service
conditions, service interruptions, and in some cases could result in a
remote security breach.
Updated ucd-snmp packages are provided that are not susceptible to these
vulnerabilities and which pass all tests of the test-suite sucessfully.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CAN-2002-0012 and CAN-2002-0013 to these issues.
# Ca a pas un rapport avec CAN-2002-0012 and CAN-2002-0013
