CVE-2017-12896

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions tcpdump versions prior to 4.9.2

Description The issue is related to a buffer over-read in the ISAKMP parser, specifically in the isakmp rfc3948 print() function. This could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information by sending a specially crafted request.

Recommendations For versions prior to 4.9.2, update to version 4.9.2 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the print-isakmp.c component until a patch is available.
