{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2022-24809","details":"net-snmp provides various tools relating to the Simple Network Management Protocol. Prior to version 5.9.2, a user with read-only credentials can use a malformed OID in a `GET-NEXT` to the `nsVacmAccessTable` to cause a NULL pointer dereference. Version 5.9.2 contains a patch. Users should use strong SNMPv3 credentials and avoid sharing the credentials. Those who must use SNMPv1 or SNMPv2c should use a complex community string and enhance the protection by restricting access to a given IP address range.","modified":"2026-04-22T13:19:50.380257Z","published":"2022-07-08T11:42:00Z","related":["USN-5543-1","USN-5795-2"],"upstream":["CVE-2022-24809"],"references":[{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-24809"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2022-24809"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-5543-1"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-5795-2"},{"type":"REPORT","url":"https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2022-24809"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"net-snmp","ecosystem":"Ubuntu:Pro:14.04:LTS","purl":"pkg:deb/ubuntu/net-snmp@5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3+esm3?arch=source&distro=trusty/esm"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3+esm3"}]}],"versions":["5.7.2~dfsg-8ubuntu1","5.7.2~dfsg-8ubuntu2","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu1","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu2","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.1","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.2","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3+esm1","5.7.2~dfsg-8.1ubuntu3.3+esm2"],"ecosystem_specific":{"availability":"Available
