<impact type="high">
|
||
<p>A local attacker, who either is already collectd’s system user or
|
||
belongs to collectd’s group, could potentially gain root privileges and
|
||
cause a Denial of Service condition.
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>Remote attackers could cause a Denial of Service condition via specially
|
||
crafted SNMP responses.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</impact>
|
||
<workaround>
|
||
<p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
|
||
</workaround>
|
||
<resolution>
|
||
<p>All collectd users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
