<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.
