net-snmp 5.7.3 – Unauthenticated Denial of Service (PoC)
This exploit is a proof of concept for a denial of service vulnerability in net-snmp 5.7.3. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a specially crafted packet to the SNMP port (UDP/161). The packet contains a base64 encoded string which is decoded and sent to the SNMP port. This causes the service to crash.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to the latest version of net-snmp.
