Description:
Wade Alcorn and John Heasman have reported a vulnerability in SNMPc, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or compromise a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error in the SNMPc Network Manager when processing SNMP TRAP packets. This can be exploited to cause a stack-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted UDP packet containing an overly long community string to an affected system.
Successful exploitation allows execution of arbitrary code.
The vulnerability is reported in version 7.1. Prior versions may also be affected.
