Ubuntu Security Notice USN-1450-1
May 23, 2012
net-snmp vulnerability
==========================================================================
A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:
- Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 11.10
- Ubuntu 11.04
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 8.04 LTS
Summary:
Net-SNMP could be made to crash if it received specially crafted network
traffic.
Software Description:
- net-snmp: SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) server and applications
Details:
It was discovered that Net-SNMP incorrectly performed entry lookups in the
extension table. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request
and cause the SNMP server to crash, leading to a denial of service.
Update instructions:
The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS:
libsnmp15 5.4.3~dfsg-2.4ubuntu1.1
Ubuntu 11.10:
libsnmp15 5.4.3~dfsg-2.2ubuntu1.1
Ubuntu 11.04:
libsnmp15 5.4.3~dfsg-2ubuntu1.1
Ubuntu 10.04 LTS:
libsnmp15 5.4.2.1~dfsg0ubuntu1-0ubuntu2.2
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS:
libsnmp15 5.4.1~dfsg-4ubuntu4.4
In general, a standard system update will make all the necessary changes.
