Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FreeBSD versions 4.11 through 6.1 NetBSD versions 2.0 through 4.0 beta before 20060823 OpenBSD versions 3.8 and 3.9 before 20060902

Description A buffer overflow issue exists in the sppp driver, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service, obtain sensitive information, and possibly execute arbitrary code via crafted Link Control Protocol packets.
