1. Topic:

Updated tcpdump, libpcap, and arpwatch packages are available for Red
Hat Linux 6.2 and 7.x.  These updates close vulnerabilities
present in versions of tcpdump up to 3.5.1 and various other bugs.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Linux 6.2 - alpha, i386, sparc

Red Hat Linux 7.0 - alpha, i386

Red Hat Linux 7.1 - alpha, i386, ia64

Red Hat Linux 7.2 - i386, ia64

3. Problem description:



4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

To update all RPMs for your particular architecture, run:

rpm -Fvh [filenames]

where [filenames] is a list of the RPMs you wish to upgrade.  Only those
RPMs which are currently installed will be updated.  Those RPMs which are
not installed but included in the list will not be updated.  Note that you
can also use wildcards (*.rpm) if your current directory *only* contains the
desired RPMs.

Please note that this update is also available via Red Hat Network.  Many
people find this an easier way to apply updates.  To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.

5. Bug IDs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info):

45520 - Remote root exploit
49294 - security problem in tcpdump-3.6.2 AFS printing
47174 - libpcap-0.4-39.i386.rpm does not contain shared library libpcap.so.0
52654 - Tcpdump get spurious packets before kernel filter kicks in
57711 - arpwatch depends on csh for no good reason
54593 - Doco change in specfile (minor)
49635 - PATCH: tcpdump to drop root by default
58346 - tcpdump.spec creates pcap user with nonexistant shell
