Updated net-snmp packages fix security vulnerabilities :

Remotely exploitable denial of service vulnerability in Net-SNMP, in the Linux implementation of the ICMP-MIB, making the SNMP agent vulnerable if it is making use of the ICMP-MIB table objects (CVE-2014-2284).

Remotely exploitable denial of service vulnerability in Net-SNMP, in snmptrapd, due to how it handles trap requests with an empty community string when the perl handler is enabled (CVE-2014-2285).

A remote denial-of-service flaw was found in the way snmptrapd handled certain SNMP traps when started with the -OQ option. If an attacker sent an SNMP trap containing a variable with a NULL type where an integer variable type was expected, it would cause snmptrapd to crash (CVE-2014-3565).

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ELSA-2014-0321 advisory.

    [1:5.5-49.0.1.el6_5.1]
    - snmptrapd: Fix crash due to access of freed memory (John Haxby) [orabug 14404682]

    [1:5.5-49.1]
    - added 'diskio' option to snmpd.conf, it's possible to monitor only selected       devices in diskIOTable (#990674)
    - fixed CVE-2014-2284: denial of service flaw in Linux implementation of       ICMP-MIB (#1073222)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

A buffer overflow flaw was found in the way the decode_icmp_msg() function in the ICMP-MIB implementation processed Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) message statistics reported in the /proc/net/snmp file. A remote attacker could send a message for each ICMP message type, which could potentially cause the snmpd service to crash when processing the /proc/net/snmp file. (CVE-2014-2284)

This update also fixes the following bug :

  - The snmpd service parses the /proc/diskstats file to     track disk usage statistics for     UCD-DISKIO-MIB::diskIOTable. On systems with a large     number of block devices, /proc/diskstats may be large in     size and parsing it can take a non-trivial amount of CPU     time. With this update, Net-SNMP introduces a new     option, 'diskio', in the /etc/snmp/snmpd.conf file,     which can be used to explicitly specify devices that     should be monitored. Only these whitelisted devices are     then reported in UCD-DISKIO- MIB::diskIOTable, thus     speeding up snmpd on systems with numerous block     devices.

After installing this update, the snmpd service will be restarted automatically.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201409-02 (Net-SNMP: Denial of Service)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Net-SNMP. Please review       the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could create a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

Updated net-snmp packages that fix one security issue and one bug are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.

The net-snmp packages provide various libraries and tools for the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), including an SNMP library, an extensible agent, tools for requesting or setting information from SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command which uses SNMP, and a Tk/Perl Management Information Base (MIB) browser.
