Description:
Konstantin V. Gavrilenko has reported two security issues in Quagga, which can be exploited by malicious people to bypass certain security restrictions and to disclose system information.
1) An error in RIPd causes RIPv1 RESPONSE packets to be accepted for routing state update, even when RIPv2 authentication has been enabled. This can potentially be exploited to inject malicious route into the RIP daemon.
2) An error in RIPd causes it to respond to RIPv1 SEND UPDATE requests and to send out routing table information, even when RIPv2 authentication has been enabled. This can potentially be exploited to obtain route information.
The security issues have been reported in 0.98.3 and 0.99.5. Other versions may also be affected.
Solution:
The security issues have been fixed in the CVS repositories.
Provided and/or discovered by:
