Oracle Linux: CVE-2017-5202: ELSA-2017-1871: tcpdump security, bug fix, and enhancement update (MODERATE) (Multiple Advisories)
Description
The ISO CLNS parser in tcpdump before 4.9.0 has a buffer overflow in print-isoclns.c:clnp_print(). Multiple out of bounds read and integer overflow vulnerabilities were found in tcpdump affecting the decoding of various protocols. An attacker could create a crafted pcap file or send specially crafted packets to the network segment where tcpdump is running in live capture mode (without -w) which could cause it to display incorrect data, crash or enter an infinite loop.
