Descriptions

tcpdump 3.8 through 4.6.2 might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from memory or cause a denial of service (packet loss or segmentation fault) via a crafted Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) packet, which triggers an out-of-bounds memory access.

tcpdump 3.8 hasta 4.6.2 podría permitir a atacantes remotos obtener información sensible de la memoria o causar una denegación de servicio ( paquetes perdidos o fallo de segmentación) a través de un paquete manipulado Ad hoc On-Demand Distance (AODV), que desencadena un acceso a memoria fuera de rango.

It was found out that malformed network traffic (AOVD-based) can lead to an abnormal behavior if verbose output of tcpdump monitoring the network is used. Affected versions are 3.8 through 4.6.2.
