VULHUB ™

FreeBSD Security Advisory FreeBSD-SA-01:48 - An overflowable buffer was found in the version of tcpdump included with FreeBSD 4.x. Due to incorrect string length handling in the decoding of AFS RPC packets, a remote user may be able to overflow a buffer causing the local tcpdump process to crash. In addition, it may be possible to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running tcpdump, often root.
