CVE-2018-14467

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 BGP parser of the tcpdump utility, specifically in the bgp capabilities print() function. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or potentially gain unauthorized access to information, affecting its integrity and availability.

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 the use of the bgp capabilities print() function until a patch is available.
