Detail

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog) Ubuntu 5.04 (Hoary Hedgehog)

The following packages are affected:

libsnmp5 snmpd

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to version 5.1.1-2ubuntu3.1 (for Ubuntu 4.10), or 5.1.2-6ubuntu2.1 (for Ubuntu 5.04). In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

A remote Denial of Service has been discovered in the SMNP (Simple Network Management Protocol) library. If a SNMP agent uses TCP sockets for communication, a malicious SNMP server could exploit this to crash the agent. Please note that by default SNMP uses UDP sockets.

Title: Net-SNMP 5.0.x before 5.0.10.2, 5.2.x before 5.2.1.2, and 5.1.3, when net-snmp is using stream sockets such as TCP, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon hang and CPU consumption) via a TCP packet of length 1, which triggers an infinite loop.
