  <title>ISC DHCP: dhcpd Denial of service</title>
  <synopsis>
    dhcpd as included in the ISC DHCP implementation does not properly handle
    special conditions, leading to a Denial of Service.
  </synopsis>

    <package name="net-misc/dhcp" auto="yes" arch="*">
      <unaffected range="ge">3.1.2_p1</unaffected>

  <background>
    <p>
    ISC DHCP is the reference implementation of the Dynamic Host
    Configuration Protocol as specified in RFC 2131.
    </p>

  <description>
    <p>
    Christoph Biedl discovered that dhcpd does not properly handle certain
    DHCP requests when configured both using "dhcp-client-identifier" and
    "hardware ethernet".
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>
    A remote attacker might send a specially crafted request to dhcpd,
    possibly resulting in a Denial of Service (daemon crash).
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>
    There is no known workaround at this time.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>
    All ISC DHCP users should upgrade to the latest version:
    </p>
    <code>
    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-misc/dhcp-3.1.2_p1"</code>
  </resolution>
