VMware Security Advisory

VMware Security Advisory Advisory ID:

VMSA-2010-0003.1

VMware Security Advisory Synopsis:

VMSA-2010-0003.1 ESX Service Console update for net-snmp

VMware Security Advisory Issue date:

2010-02-16

VMware Security Advisory Updated on:

2010-03-08

VMware Security Advisory CVE numbers:

CVE-2009-1887

1. Summary

Update for Service Console package net-snmp

2. Relevant releases

VMware ESX 3.5 without patch ESX350-201002401-SG
VMware ESX 3.0.3 without patch ESX303-201002202-SG

3. Problem Description

a. Service Console package net-snmp updated
This patch updates the service console package for net-snmp, net-snmp-utils, and net-snmp-libs to version net-snmp-5.0.9-2.30E.28. This net-snmp update fixes a divide-by- zero flaw in the snmpd daemon. A remote attacker could issue a specially crafted GETBULK request that could cause the snmpd daemon to fail.

This vulnerability was introduced by an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-4309.

The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CVE-2009-1887 to this issue.

Note: After installing the previous patch for net-snmp (ESX350-200901409-SG), running the snmpbulkwalk command with the parameter -CnX results in no output, and the snmpd daemon stops.

The following table lists what action remediates the vulnerability (column 4) if a solution is available.
