<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.

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.

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>
|
|
|
|
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.

There is no known workaround at this time.
