Tcpdump Remote Denial of Service Exploit (bgp_update_print)
------------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY

" <http://www.tcpdump.org/> tcpdump is a program used to dump network
traffic for TCP/IP networks. The information can be used by a wide variety
of network analysis programs, either via piping or by saving the stream to
a file for later analysis."

By sending a specially crafted BGP4 message to a server running tcpdump,
it is possible to crash the target application.

DETAILS

Vulnerable Systems:
* libnet version 1.1.

Exploit:
/*
* 2005-05-31: Modified by simon@FreeBSD.org to test tcpdump infinite
* loop vulnerability.
*
* libnet 1.1
* Build a BGP4 update message with what you want as payload
