Description Josh Bressers 2005-06-28 22:20:43 EDT

Debian has notified vendor-sec of a security hole in dhcpcd: A malformed DHCP
packet can make the code read beyond the end of a buffer and therefore
potentially crash. There's no root execution exposure.

Comment 3 Jason Vas Dias 2005-07-14 17:55:46 EDT

Now fixed with dhcpcd-1.3.20pl0-2 .
