EulerOS 2.0 SP2 : net-snmp (EulerOS-SA-2020-1621)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 137463

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the net-snmp packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - The perl_trapd_handler function in perl/TrapReceiver/TrapReceiver.xs in Net-SNMP 5.7.3.pre3 and earlier, when using certain Perl versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (snmptrapd crash) via an empty community string in an SNMP trap, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference within the newSVpv function in Perl.(CVE-2014-2285)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected net-snmp package.
