Description Marcel Holtmann 2006-05-22 08:55:29 UTC

The SNMP NAT helper netfilter can cause a memory corruption. The corruption can
be triggered remotely when the ip_nat_snmp_basic module is loaded and traffic on
port 161 or 162 is NATed.

Proposed upstream fix can be found here:

patch is in, there doesn't look to be a way to reproduce the bug itself reliably.
