    Synopsis
    ========

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in SNMP Trap Translator, the
    worst of which could allow attackers to execute arbitrary shell code.

    Background
    ==========

    SNMP Trap Translator (SNMPTT) is an SNMP trap handler written in Perl.

    Affected packages
    =================

    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
    -------------------------------------------------------------------
    1 net-analyzer/snmptt < 1.4.1 >= 1.4.1

    Description
    ===========

    It was found that SNMP Trap Translator does not drop privileges as
    configured and does not properly escape shell commands in certain
    functions.

    Impact
    ======

    A remote attacker, by sending a malicious crafted SNMP trap, could
    possibly execute arbitrary shell code with the privileges of the
    process or cause a Denial of Service condition.

    Workaround
    ==========

    There is no known workaround at this time.

    Resolution
    ==========

    All SNMP Trap Translator users should upgrade to the latest version:

    # emerge --sync
    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/snmptt-1.4.1"
