Detail

a. Service Console package net-snmp updated

This patch updates the service console package for net-snmp, net-snmp-utils, and net-snmp-libs to version net-snmp-5.0.9-2.30E.28. This net-snmp update fixes a divide-by- zero flaw in the snmpd daemon. A remote attacker could issue a specially crafted GETBULK request that could cause the snmpd daemon to fail.

This vulnerability was introduced by an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-4309.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-1887 to this issue.

Note: After installing the previous patch for net-snmp (ESX350-200901409-SG), running the snmpbulkwalk command with the parameter -CnX results in no output, and the snmpd daemon stops.

Description: Updated net-snmp packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for network management. A denial-of-service flaw was found in the way Net-SNMP processes SNMP GETBULK requests. A remote attacker who issued a specially-crafted request could cause the snmpd server to crash. (CVE-2008-4309)

Title: DSA-1663 net-snmp -- several vulnerabilities
Description: 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: Wes Hardaker reported that the SNMPv3 HMAC verification relies on the client to specify the HMAC length, which allows spoofing of authenticated SNMPv3 packets. 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). 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.
