Debian LTS: DLA-1313-1: isc-dhcp security update
Summary
CVE-2018-5732
Felix Wilhelm of the Google Security Team discovered that the DHCP
client is prone to an out-of-bound memory access vulnerability when
processing specially constructed DHCP options responses, resulting
in potential execution of arbitrary code by a malicious DHCP server.
CVE-2018-5733
Felix Wilhelm of the Google Security Team discovered that the DHCP
server does not properly handle reference counting when processing
client requests. A malicious client can take advantage of this flaw
to cause a denial of service (dhcpd crash) by sending large amounts
of traffic.
For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
4.2.2.dfsg.1-5+deb70u9.
We recommend that you upgrade your isc-dhcp packages.
