+ <title>Net-SNMP: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Multiple vulnerabilities in Net-SNMP allow for authentication bypass in
+ snmpd and execution of arbitrary code in Perl applications using Net-SMNP.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ 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.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ 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).
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ 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.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.4.1.1"</code>
