Id Description
15864 tcpdump LDP ldp_print() Function Malformed Packet DoS

tcpdump contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered due to the ldp_print() function when handling Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) packets. By sending a malformed LDP packet, a remote attacker could cause the application to enter an infinite loop resulting in a loss of availability.
15863 tcpdump BGP RT_ROUTING_INFO Malformed Packet DoS

tcpdump contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when handling Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) packets. By sending a malformed BGP packet, a remote attacker could cause the application to enter an infinite loop resulting in a loss of availability.
