Critical

VectorAV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions tcpdump version 4.9.0
Description The issue is related to a buffer overflow in the sliplink print function and a buffer overread memory in the HNCP component. This could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information by sending a specially crafted request.
Recommendations For tcpdump version 4.9.0, at the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the sliplink print function and restricting access to the HNCP component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
