AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions net-snmp versions 5.7.0 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically a crash of the snmptrapd service, by sending a crafted SNMP trap message. This occurs when the -OQ option is used, triggering a conversion to the variable type designated in the MIB file. For example, a NULL type in an ifMtu trap message can cause this issue.

Recommendations For net-snmp versions 5.7.0 and earlier, consider disabling the use of the -OQ option until a fix is available to prevent the denial of service. Additionally, restrict access to the snmptrapd service to minimize the risk of exploitation.
