CVE-2018-14463

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions tcpdump versions prior to 4.9.3

Description The issue is related to a buffer over-read in the VRRP parser, specifically in the vrrp print() function, which can be exploited by a remote attacker to gain unauthorized access to information, compromise its integrity and availability, or cause a denial of service. The vulnerability is associated with the VRRP version 2 parser in print-vrrp.c.

Recommendations For versions prior to 4.9.3, update to version 4.9.3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vrrp print() function until a patch is available.
