Package: quagga
Version: 0.99.20.1-0+squeeze1
Severity: important

After upgrading to latest security release of quagga on our two border routers, 
the bgpd daemon began to suck up all the available memory. This took place at a 
rate of about 4.5G per 24hr period. This continued until it consumed all the 
ram (8G) and all the swap (4G) which caused the kernel to remove the bgpd 
process.

This appeared to occur at the same rate on both routers. Although these routers 
both receive full route loads from upstream for both ipv4 and ipv6, the 
previous version averaged right around 1G of memory use total for the routers.

routers are identical hardware and software.

Please advise if you require configuration info.
