CVE-2005-1279
tcpdump 3.8.3 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted (1) BGP packet, which is not properly handled by RT_ROUTING_INFO, or (2) LDP packet, which is not properly handled by the ldp_print function.
Does this matter?
EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 18.7%, higher than 97% of all known CVEs. Patch or mitigate before the next change window.
