"A privilege escalation vulnerability vulnerability was discovered in
Net-SNMP, a set of tools for collecting and organising information
about devices on computer networks.
Upstream notes that :
- It is still possible to enable this MIB via the
--with-mib-modules configure option.
- Another MIB that provides similar functionality, namely
ucd-snmp/extensible, is disabled by default.
- The security risk of ucd-snmp/pass and
ucd-snmp/pass_persist is lower since these modules only
introduce a security risk if the invoked scripts are
exploitable.
For Debian 9 'Stretch', this issue has been fixed in net-snmp version
5.7.3+dfsg-1.7+deb9u2.
We recommend that you upgrade your net-snmp 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."
