Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: tcpdump security update
Notes
Topic
Updated tcpdump packages are available to fix a denial of service
vulnerability in tcpdump.
[Updated 12 March 2003]
Added packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES and Red Hat Enterprise
Linux WS
Details
Tcpdump is a command-line tool for monitoring network traffic.
The ISAKMP parser in tcpdump 3.6 through 3.7.1 allows remote attackers to
cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a certain malformed ISAKMP
packet to UDP port 500, which causes tcpdump to enter an infinite loop.
Users of tcpdump are advised to upgrade to these errata packages which
contain a patch to correct this issue.
