Package: tcptrack Version: 1.3.0-1 Severity: important Tags: patch tcptrack crashes with the following assertion on my mac-mini (a PPC, so a big-engian system):
tcptrack: IPv4Packet.cc:14: IPv4Packet::IPv4Packet(const u_char*, unsigned int): Assertion `ip->ip_v == 4' failed. The cause: The headers.h file does not include 'config.h', as a result the sniff_ip structure is compiled in little-endian format iso big-endian. The code in Sniffer.cc knows the packet is IPv4 (because the ethernet header says so) but the following code, which uses the sniff_ip struct, thinks it's not. I suspect this could also occur with invalid or maliciously crafted packets. The attached patch only fixes the endianness of the struct. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.28-rc4 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages tcptrack depends on: ii libc6 2.7-16 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libgcc1 1:4.3.2-1 GCC support library ii libncurses5 5.7+20081213-1 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpcap0.8 0.9.8-5 system interface for user-level pa ii libstdc++6 4.3.2-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 tcptrack recommends no packages. tcptrack suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
