The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200808-02 (Net-SNMP: Multiple vulnerabilities)

Wes Hardaker reported that the SNMPv3 HMAC verification relies on the     client to specify the HMAC length (CVE-2008-0960). John Kortink     reported a buffer overflow in the Perl bindings of Net-SNMP when     processing the OCTETSTRING in an attribute value pair (AVP) received by     an SNMP agent (CVE-2008-2292).

Impact :

An attacker could send SNMPv3 packets to an instance of snmpd providing     a valid user name and an HMAC length value of 1, and easily conduct     brute-force attacks to bypass SNMP authentication. An attacker could     further entice a user to connect to a malicious SNMP agent with an SNMP     client using the Perl bindings, possibly resulting in the execution of     arbitrary code.

Workaround :

There is no known workaround at this time.
