Category:Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2014-0019)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0019 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2014-0019 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Updated net-snmp packages fix security vulnerability:

Net-SNMP 5.7.1 and earlier, when AgentX is registering to handle a MIB and
processing GETNEXT requests, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
service (crash or infinite loop, CPU consumption, and hang) by causing the
AgentX subagent to timeout (CVE-2012-6151).

This update also fixes two other minor issues: IPADDRESS size in
python-netsnmp on 64-bit systems and adding btrfs support to hrFSTable.

Affected Software/OS:
'net-snmp' package(s) on Mageia 3.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
4.3
