NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream net-snmp-agent-libs package and not the net-snmp-agent-libs package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
snmplib/mib.c in net-snmp 5.7.0 and earlier, when the -OQ option is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (snmptrapd crash) via a crafted SNMP trap message, which triggers a conversion to the variable type designated in the MIB file, as demonstrated by a NULL type in an ifMtu trap message.
