Title:	SUSE: Security Advisory (SUSE-SU-2012:0888-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0888-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'net-snmp' package(s) announced via the SUSE-SU-2012:0888-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: This update to net-snmp resolves the following issues: * Specially crafted SNMP GET requests could cause a denial of service (application crash) via a heap-based out-out-bounds read flaw which could be exploited remotely (CVE-2012-2141). * The snmpd agent should read shared memory information from /proc/meminfo when running on Linux Kernel 2.6 or newer (bnc#762887). * The snmpd agent could crash when an AgentX sub-agent disconnects in the middle of a request (bnc#670789). * After rotating the net-snmp log file, use 'try-restart' to restart the daemon. Reloading with a SIGHUP signal may trigger crashes when dynamic modules (dlmod) are in use (bnc#762433). Security Issue reference: * CVE-2012-2141 > Affected Software/OS: 'net-snmp' package(s) on SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11-SP1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 11-SP2, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11-SP1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11-SP2, SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit 11-SP1, SUSE Linux Enterprise Software Development Kit 11-SP2. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 3.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:P
