Description Dax 2006-05-22 00:20:20 UTC
hi all,


Quagga BGPD Local Denial Of Service Vulnerability

Quagga is prone to a local denial-of-service vulnerability.

An attacker can exploit this issue by using commands that cause the consumption of a large amount of CPU resources.

An attacker may cause the application to crash, thus denying service to legitimate users.

Version 0.98.3 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected.

########

Quagga Information Disclosure and Route Injection Vulnerabilities

Quagga is susceptible to remote information-disclosure and route-injection vulnerabilities. The application fails to properly ensure that required authentication and protocol configuration options are enforced.

These issues allow remote attackers to gain access to potentially sensitive network-routing configuration information and to inject arbitrary routes into the RIP routing table. This may aid malicious users in further attacks against targeted networks.

Quagga versions 0.98.5 and 0.99.3 are vulnerable to these issues; other versions may also be affected.
