Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.4.2.1-r1>= 5.4.2.1-r1

Background

net-snmp bundles software for generating and retrieving SNMP data.

Description

The netsnmp_udp_fmtaddr() function (snmplib/snmpUDPDomain.c), when using TCP wrappers for client authorization, does not properly parse hosts.allow rules.

Impact

A remote, unauthenticated attacker could bypass the ACL filtering, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary SNMP queries.

Workaround

If possible, protect net-snmp with custom iptables rules:

iptables -s [client] -d [host] -p udp --dport 161 -j ACCEPT
iptables -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d [host] -p udp --dport 161 -j DROP

net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.4.2.1>= 5.4.2.1

Background

Net-SNMP is a collection of tools for generating and retrieving SNMP data.

Description

Oscar Mira-Sanchez reported an integer overflow in the netsnmp_create_subtree_cache() function in agent/snmp_agent.c when processing GETBULK requests.

Impact

A remote attacker could send a specially crafted request to crash the SNMP server. NOTE: The attacker needs to know the community string to exploit this vulnerability.

Workaround

Restrict access to trusted entities only.

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.4.1.1>= 5.4.1.1

Background

Net-SNMP is a collection of tools for generating and retrieving SNMP data. The SNMPv3 protocol uses a keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) to verify data integrity and authenticity of SNMP messages.

Description

Wes Hardaker reported that the SNMPv3 HMAC verification relies on the client to specify the HMAC length (CVE-2008-0960). John Kortink reported a buffer overflow in the Perl bindings of Net-SNMP when processing the OCTETSTRING in an attribute value pair (AVP) received by an SNMP agent (CVE-2008-2292).

Impact

An attacker could send SNMPv3 packets to an instance of snmpd providing a valid user name and an HMAC length value of 1, and easily conduct brute-force attacks to bypass SNMP authentication. An attacker could further entice a user to connect to a malicious SNMP agent with an SNMP client using the Perl bindings, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.4.1.1"

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.4.1-r1>= 5.4.1-r1

Background

Net-SNMP is a collection of tools for generating and retrieving SNMP data.

Description

The SNMP agent (snmpd) does not properly handle GETBULK requests with an overly large "max-repetitions" field.

Impact

A remote unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted SNMP request to the vulnerable application, possibly resulting in a high CPU and memory consumption.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest version:

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.2.1.2-r1>= 5.2.1.2-r1

Background

Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement the Simple Network Management Protocol.

Description

James Cloos reported that Perl modules from the Net-SNMP package look for libraries in an untrusted location. This is due to a flaw in the Gentoo package, and not the Net-SNMP suite.

Impact

A local attacker (member of the portage group) may be able to create a shared object that would be loaded by the Net-SNMP Perl modules, executing arbitrary code with the privileges of the user invoking the Perl script.

Workaround

Limit group portage access to trusted users.

Resolution

All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.2.1.2-r1"

Affected packages

PackageArchVulnerableUnaffected
net-analyzer/net-snmp*< 5.2.1-r1>= 5.2.1-r1

Background

Net-SNMP is a suite of applications used to implement the Simple Network Management Protocol.

Description

The fixproc application of Net-SNMP creates temporary files with predictable filenames.

Impact

A malicious local attacker could exploit a race condition to change the content of the temporary files before they are executed by fixproc, possibly leading to the execution of arbitrary code. A local attacker could also create symbolic links in the temporary files directory, pointing to a valid file somewhere on the filesystem. When fixproc is executed, this would result in the file being overwritten.

Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.

Resolution

All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest available version:

# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.2.1-r1"
