Name        : tcpdump
Versions    : rh9: tcpdump-3.7.2-7.9.4.legacy
Versions    : fc1: tcpdump-3.7.2-8.fc1.3.legacy
Versions    : fc2: tcpdump-3.8.2-6.FC2.3.legacy
Summary     : A network traffic monitoring tool.
Description :
Tcpdump is a command-line tool for monitoring network traffic.
Tcpdump can capture and display the packet headers on a particular
network interface or on all interfaces. Tcpdump can display all of the
packet headers, or just the ones that match particular criteria.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Updated tcpdump packages that fix several security issues are now
available.

Tcpdump is a command-line tool for monitoring network traffic.

Several denial of service bugs were found in the way tcpdump processes
certain network packets. It is possible for an attacker to inject a
carefully crafted packet onto the network, crashing a running tcpdump
session. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project
(cve.mitre.org) has assigned the names CVE-2005-1267, CVE-2005-1278,
CVE-2005-1279, and CVE-2005-1280 to these issues.

Users of tcpdump are advised to upgrade to these erratum packages, which
contain backported security patches and are not vulnerable to these
issues.
