CVE-2014-3565
First published: Thu Jul 31 2014(Updated: )
A remote denial-of-service flaw was found in the way snmptrapd handled certain SNMP traps when started with the "-OQ" option. If an attacker sent an SNMP trap containing a variable with a NULL type where an integer variable type was expected, it would cause snmptrapd to crash.
