Recommended Posts

Off-by-one buffer overflow in the parse_elements function in the 802.11

printer code (print-802_11.c) for tcpdump 3.9.5 and earlier allows

remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a crafted

802.11 frame. NOTE: this was originally referred to as heap-based, but

it might be stack-based.

 

Updated packages have been patched to address this issue.
