Synopsis
========
Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in SNMP Trap Translator, the
worst of which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary shell code.
Background
==========
SNMP Trap Translator (SNMPTT) is an SNMP trap handler written in Perl.
Affected packages
=================
——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 net-analyzer/snmptt < 1.4.1 >= 1.4.1
Description
===========
It was found that SNMP Trap Translator does not drop privileges as
configured and does not properly escape shell commands in certain
functions.
Impact
======
A remote attacker, by sending a malicious crafted SNMP trap, could
possibly execute arbitrary shell code with the privileges of the
process or cause a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All SNMP Trap Translator users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=net-analyzer/snmptt-1.4.1”
