Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0887-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0887-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:

'try-restart' to restart the daemon. Reloading with a SIGHUP signal may trigger crashes when dynamic modules
(dlmod) are in use (bnc#762433).
