Unspecified vulnerability in Net-SNMP 5.3 before 5.3.0.1, when configured using the rocommunity or rouser snmpd.conf tokens, causes Net-SNMP to grant write access to users or communities that only have read-only access.
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.
A possibility of sensitive host information disclosure was found in the implementation of SNMP protocol as defined in RFC 1065, RFC 1066, and RFC 1067. If the snmpd deamon was running on the host, it served the SNMP queries regardless of the fact, the IP address of the requester was not mentioned in the list of hosts allowed to issue / request SNMP MIB objects information. Remote attacker could use this flaw to gain host related sensitive information via performing a SNMP query.

Net-SNMP 5.7.1 and earlier, when AgentX is registering to handle a MIB and processing GETNEXT requests, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or infinite loop, CPU consumption, and hang) by causing the AgentX subagent to timeout.
