+  <title>Net-SNMP: Denial of Service</title>
+  <synopsis>
+    A Denial of Service vulnerability has been discovered in Net-SNMP when
+    processing GETBULK requests.
+  </synopsis>
+  <product type="ebuild">net-snmp</product>
+  <announced>November 20, 2007</announced>
+  <revised>November 20, 2007: 01</revised>

+  <affected>
+    <package name="net-analyzer/net-snmp" auto="yes" arch="*">
+      <unaffected range="ge">5.4.1-r1</unaffected>

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Net-SNMP is a collection of tools for generating and retrieving SNMP
+    data.
+    </p>
+  </background>
+  <description>
+    <p>
+    The SNMP agent (snmpd) does not properly handle GETBULK requests with
+    an overly large "max-repetitions" field.
+    </p>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted SNMP
+    request to the vulnerable application, possibly resulting in a high CPU
+    and memory consumption.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Net-SNMP users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-analyzer/net-snmp-5.4.1-r1&quot;</code>
