Description Executioner 2007-02-02 15:21:27 UTC

It doesn't specifically mention 1.1 but it probably couldn't hurt pumping up to 1.1.5 imho.

A vulnerability has been reported in ZABBIX, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) or to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when processing SNMP responses. This can be exploited to cause a buffer overflow via a specially crafted SNMP packet containing an invalid IP address and may allow execution of arbitrary code.

Successful exploitation requires knowledge about a monitored SNMP device or SNMP daemon.

The vulnerability is reported in version 1.1.2, 1.1.3, and 1.1.4.

Solution:
Update to version 1.1.5.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Committed =net-analyzer/zabbix-{agent,frontend,server}-1.1.6.
I suppose zabbix-server is the relevant package.

Thanks Wolfram, since there is no stable ebuild in any arch for zabbix-server, i close the bug. Feel free to reopen if you disagree.
