Name        : dhcp
Versions    : rh7.3:
Summary     : A DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and
              relay agent.
Description :
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network
configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address,
etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to make it
easier to administer a large network. The dhcp package includes the
DHCP server and a DHCP relay agent.

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

Updated dhcp packages that fix a security issue are now available.

Xpdf is a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server and
relay agent.

"infamous41md" noticed that the log functions in dhcp 2.x pass
parameters to a function that uses format strings. One use seems to be
exploitable in connection with a malicious DNS server. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the
name CAN-2004-1006 to this issue.

Users of dhcp are advised to upgrade to this errata package, which
contains backported patches correcting this issue.
