net-snmp-5.3.2.2-20.0.1.AXS3

SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a protocol used for network management. The NET-SNMP project includes various SNMP tools: an extensible agent, an SNMP library, tools for requesting or setting information from SNMP agents, tools for generating and handling SNMP traps, a version of the netstat command which uses SNMP, and a Tk/Perl mib browser. This package contains the snmpd and snmptrapd daemons, documentation, etc.

You will probably also want to install the net-snmp-utils package, which contains NET-SNMP utilities.

Building option: --without tcp_wrappers : disable tcp_wrappers support

Security issues fixed with this release:

• CVE-2012-2141:
Array index error in the handle_nsExtendOutput2Table function in agent/mibgroup/agent/extend.c in Net-SNMP 5.7.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read and snmpd crash) via an SNMP GET request for an entry not in the extension table.

Fixed bugs:

• The snmpd daemon now recognizes devices using tmpfs, ReiserFS, and Oracle Cluster File System (OCFS2) file systems and reports them in the "HOST-RESOURCES-MIB::hrStorageTable" table.

• Updated the snmptrapd (8) man page to correctly describe how to load multiple configuration files using the "-c" option: multiple configuration files must be separated by a comma.

• The snmpd daemon did not evaluate correctly integers truncated from 64 to 32-bit and could then enter an endless loop. This has been fixed.

• snmpd does no longer crash when receiving a signal while enumerating existing IPv6 network prefixes during startup.

• Fixed decoding of COUNTER64 values from AgentX: snmpd now uses the correct COUNTER64 size and can process several COUNTER64 values in AgentX communication.

• Fixed engineID of outgoing traps if 'trapsess -e <engineID>' is used in snmpd.conf.

• Fixed Request-ID encoded in 5-bytes when it gets negative

• added support for port numbers in 'clientaddr' configuration option.

• Ffixed snmpd showing "failed to run mteTrigger query" when 'monitor' config option is used.
