A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in LBL tcpdump 3.6.2 (Packet Analyzer Software). Affected is an unknown code of the component NFS Packet Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

Buffer overflow in tcpdump 3.6.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an NFS packet.

The bug was discovered 05/29/2002. The weakness was released 06/18/2002 with Red Hat (Website). The advisory is available at redhat.com. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2002-0380. The exploitability is told to be easy. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploitation doesn't require any form of authentication. The technical details are unknown and an exploit is not available.

The vulnerability was handled as a non-public zero-day exploit for at least 20 days. During that time the estimated underground price was around $0-$5k. The vulnerability scanner Nessus provides a plugin with the ID 15092 (Debian DSA-255-1 : tcpdump - infinite loop), which helps to determine the existence of the flaw in a target environment. It is assigned to the family Debian Local Security Checks and running in the context l.

Upgrading eliminates this vulnerability. A possible mitigation has been published 10 months after the disclosure of the vulnerability.

The vulnerability is also documented in the databases at X-Force (9216) and Tenable (15092).
