 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                         MDVSA-2009:056
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package : net-snmp
 Date    : February 25, 2009
 Affected: 2009.0
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A vulnerability has been identified and corrected in net-snmp:
 
 The netsnmp_udp_fmtaddr function (snmplib/snmpUDPDomain.c) in
 net-snmp 5.0.9 through 5.4.2, when using TCP wrappers for client
 authorization, does not properly parse hosts.allow rules, which
 allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions
 and execute SNMP queries, related to source/destination IP address
 confusion. (CVE-2008-6123)
 
 The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.
