http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=927637 Bug ID: 927637 Summary: VUL-0: CVE-2015-3138: tcpdump: denial of service in print-wb.c Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 201503* Hardware: Other URL: https://smash.suse.de/issue/115973/ OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Minor Priority: P5 - None Component: Network Assignee: vcizek@suse.com Reporter: astieger@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de CC: puzel@suse.com, smash_bz@suse.de Found By: Security Response Team Blocker: --- Via RH: Recently an independent researcher had discovered a vulnerability in tcpdump, which would be a segmentation fault triggered through feeding into tcpdump a crafted packet, either from a live network interface or from a .pcap file. It has been assigned CVE-2015-3138 and you can find the steps to reproduce it here: https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/tcpdump/issues/446 Subsequent analysis made it clear that the vulnerability was introduced into one of tcpdump functions by an accident not long before the 4.7.0 release. It remained in tcpdump releases 4.7.2 and 4.7.3 (4.7.1 was never released). The next release, 4.7.4, will have it fixed, but it is likely to be delayed. Since the vulnerability has been public for a few weeks, meanwhile you might want to fix it in an update to the tcpdump package. The fix is in the following commit: https://github.com/the-tcpdump-group/tcpdump/commit/3ed82f4ed0095768529afc22... openSUSE 13.1: 4.4.0 not affected openSUSE 13.2: 4.6.2 not affected network:utilities: 4.7.3 affected openSUSE:Factory: 4.7.3 affected References: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1212342 http://web.nvd.nist.gov/view/vuln/detail?vulnId=CVE-2015-3138 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-3138 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
