Several issues have been discovered with tcpdump in the way it handled some printer protocols. Those issues can lead to denial of service, or, potentially, execution of arbitrary code.

CVE-2015-0261

Missing bounds checks in IPv6 Mobility printer

CVE-2015-2154

Missing bounds checks in ISOCLNS printer

CVE-2015-2155

Missing bounds checks in ForCES printer

Thanks to Romain Françoise who prepared this update.
