CVE-2012-0255 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:9 quagga to version 0.99.20.1-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream quagga package and not the quagga package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.
The BGP implementation in bgpd in Quagga before 0.99.20.1 does not properly use message buffers for OPEN messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via a message associated with a malformed Four-octet AS Number Capability (aka AS4 capability).
