Debian Security Advisory DSA-1663-1 security@debian.org
http://www.debian.org/security/ Thijs Kinkhorst

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package : net-snmp
Vulnerability : several
Problem type : local (remote)
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-0960 CVE-2008-2292 CVE-2008-4309
Debian Bugs : 485945 482333 504150
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in NET SNMP, a suite of
Simple Network Management Protocol applications. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:
CVE-2008-0960
Wes Hardaker reported that the SNMPv3 HMAC verification relies on
the client to specify the HMAC length, which allows spoofing of
authenticated SNMPv3 packets.
CVE-2008-2292
John Kortink reported a buffer overflow in the __snprint_value
function in snmp_get causing a denial of service and potentially
allowing the execution of arbitrary code via a large OCTETSTRING
in an attribute value pair (AVP).
CVE-2008-4309
It was reported that an integer overflow in the
netsnmp_create_subtree_cache function in agent/snmp_agent.c allows
remote attackers to cause a denial of service attack via a crafted
SNMP GETBULK request.
For the stable distribution (etch), these problems has been fixed in
version 5.2.3-7etch4.
For the testing distribution (lenny) and unstable distribution (sid)
these problems have been fixed in version 5.4.1~dfsg-11.
We recommend that you upgrade your net-snmp package.
