 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           tcpdump
 Advisory ID:            MDKSA-2004:008
 Date:                   January 26th, 2004

 Affected versions:	 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
			 Multi Network Firewall 8.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in tcpdump versions prior
 to 3.8.1 that, if fed a maliciously crafted packet, could be exploited
 to crash tcpdump or potentially execute arbitrary code with the
 privileges of the user running tcpdump.  These vulnerabilities include:
 
 An infinite loop and memory consumption processing L2TP packets
 (CAN-2003-1029).
 
 Infinite loops in processing ISAKMP packets (CAN-2003-0989,
 CAN-2004-0057).
 
 A segmentation fault caused by a RADIUS attribute with a large length
 value (CAN-2004-0055).
 
 The updated packages are patched to correct these problem.
