It was discovered that there was a buffer overflow vulnerability in slirp, a SLIP/PPP emulator for using a dial up shell account. This was caused by the incorrect usage of return values from snprintf(3).

For Debian 8 ‘Jessie’, this issue has been fixed in slirp version 1:1.0.17-7+deb8u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your slirp packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
