Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.53042
Category:Conectiva Local Security Checks
Title:Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2005:967 (openslp)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing updates announced in
advisory CLA-2005:967.

OpenSLP[1] is an implementation of the 'Service Location Protocol V2',
an IETF standards track protocol that provides a framework to
allow networking applications to discover the existence, location,
and configuration of networked services in enterprise networks.

An audit performed by the SuSE Security Team of critical parts
of the OpenSLP package revealed various buffer overflows and out
of bounds memory access issues. These problems can be triggered
by remote attackers by sending malformed SLP packets.

Solution:
The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades
by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade'
