 Package : tcpdump
 Date    : August 9, 2007
 Affected: 2007.1

 Problem Description:
 
 Off-by-one buffer overflow in the parse_elements function in the
 802.11 printer code (print-802_11.c) for tcpdump 3.9.5 and earlier
 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a
 crafted 802.11 frame.
 
 Updated packages have been patched to prevent this issue.
