tag_insight = "The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a protocol used for
  network management.

  A denial-of-service flaw was found in the way Net-SNMP processes SNMP
  GETBULK requests. A remote attacker who issued a specially-crafted request
  could cause the snmpd server to crash. (CVE-2008-4309)
  
  Note: An attacker must have read access to the SNMP server in order to
  exploit this flaw. In the default configuration, the community name
  "public" grants read-only access. In production deployments, it is
  recommended to change this default community name.
  
  All users of net-snmp should upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain a backported patch to resolve this issue.";
