[slackware-security] tcpdump DoS (SSA:2005-195-10)


New tcpdump packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1,
and -current to fix a security issue. A specially crafted BGP packet can
cause tcpdump to go into an infinite loop, creating a denial of service
where network monitoring is disabled.

More details about this issue may be found in the Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) database:
