NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream tcpdump package and not the tcpdump package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

Several protocol parsers in tcpdump before 4.9.2 could cause a buffer overflow in util-print.c:bittok2str_internal().
