                    Mandrake Linux Security Update Advisory
     _______________________________________________________________________

     Package name: tcpdump
     Advisory ID: MDKSA-2004:008
     Date: January 26th, 2004

     Affected versions: 9.1, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
                             Multi Network Firewall 8.2
     ______________________________________________________________________

     Problem Description:

     A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in tcpdump versions prior
     to 3.8.1 that, if fed a maliciously crafted packet, could be exploited
     to crash tcpdump or potentially execute arbitrary code with the
     privileges of the user running tcpdump. These vulnerabilities include:
     
     An infinite loop and memory consumption processing L2TP packets
     (CAN-2003-1029).
     
     Infinite loops in processing ISAKMP packets (CAN-2003-0989,
     CAN-2004-0057).
     
     A segmentation fault caused by a RADIUS attribute with a large length
     value (CAN-2004-0055).
     
     The updated packages are patched to correct these problem.
