(net-snmp: Authorization bypass)

    The netsnmp_udp_fmtaddr() function (snmplib/snmpUDPDomain.c), when
    using TCP wrappers for client authorization, does not properly parse
    hosts.allow rules.
  
Impact :

    A remote, unauthenticated attacker could bypass the ACL filtering,
    possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary SNMP queries.
  
Workaround :

    If possible, protect net-snmp with custom iptables rules:
    iptables -s [client] -d [host] -p udp --dport 161 -j ACCEPT
    iptables -s 0.0.0.0/0 -d [host] -p udp --dport 161 -j DROP"
