Multiple buffer overflows in LBNL tcpdump allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands.

ipprint procedure in Tcpdump 3.4a allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a packet with a zero length header, which causes an infinite loop and core dump when tcpdump prints the packet.

The bgpupdateprint function in tcpdump 3.x does not properly handle a -1 return value from the decodeprefix4 function, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted BGP packet.

tcpdump, Ethereal, and other sniffer packages allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via malformed DNS packets in which a jump offset refers to itself, which causes tcpdump to enter an infinite loop while decompressing the packet.

The RADIUS decoder in tcpdump 3.6.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via an invalid RADIUS packet with a header length field of 0, which causes tcpdump to generate data within an infinite loop.

The L2TP protocol parser in tcpdump 3.8.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop and memory consumption) via a packet with invalid data to UDP port 1701, which causes l2tpavpprint to use a bad length value when calling printoctets.
