Category:Ubuntu Local Security Checks
Title:Ubuntu USN-512-1 (quagga)

The remote host is missing an update to quagga
announced via advisory USN-512-1.

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

COMMUNITY attributes sent from configured peers. Malicious authenticated
remote peers could send a specially crafted message which would cause
