AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

The supersedelease function in memory.c in ISC DHCP (dhcpd) server 2.0pl5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a DHCPDISCOVER packet with a 32 byte client-identifier, which causes the packet to be interpreted as a corrupt uid and causes the server to exit with "corrupt lease uid."

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Format string vulnerability in the log functions in dhcpd for dhcp 2.x allows remote DNS servers to execute arbitrary code via certain DNS messages, a different vulnerability than CVE-2002-0702.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Buffer overflow in the logging capability for the DHCP daemon (DHCPD) for ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via multiple hostname options in (1) DISCOVER, (2) OFFER, (3) REQUEST, (4) ACK, or (5) NAK messages, which can generate a long string when writing to a log file.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

The DHCP daemon (DHCPD) for ISC DHCP 3.0.1rc12 and 3.0.1rc13, when compiled in environments that do not provide the vsnprintf function, uses C include files that define vsnprintf to use the less safe vsprintf function, which can lead to buffer overflow vulnerabilities that enable a denial of service (server crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

ISC dhcrelay (dhcp-relay) 3.0rc9 and earlier, and possibly other versions, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (packet storm) via a certain BOOTP packet that is forwarded to a broadcast MAC address, causing an infinite loop that is not restricted by a hop count.

Buffer Overflow
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the error handling routines of the minires library, as used in the NSUPDATE capability for ISC DHCPD 3.0 through 3.0.1RC10, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a DHCP message containing a long hostname.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C

Format string vulnerabilities in the logging routines for dynamic DNS code (print.c) of ISC DHCP daemon (DHCPD) 3 to 3.0.1rc8, with the NSUPDATE option enabled, allow remote malicious DNS servers to execute arbitrary code via format strings in a DNS server response.
