+ <description>
+ <p>Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in tcpdump:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>The olsr_print function function contains an integer underflow error
+ (CVE-2014-8767)
+ </li>
+ <li>The geonet_print function function contains multiple integer
+ underflow errors (CVE-2014-8768)
+ </li>
+ <li>The decoder for the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector protocol
+ contains an out-of-bounds memory access error (CVE-2014-8769)
+ </li>
+ <li>The ppp_hdlc function contains a buffer overflow error
+ (CVE-2014-9140)
+ </li>
+ </ul>

+ <workaround>
+ <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All tcpdump users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
