Package: snmpd Version: 5.4.1~dfsg-12 Severity: normal
snmpd segfaults with the following message in syslog/messages: kernel: [5038779.180228] snmpd[28728]: segfault at 1 ip f7e1f333 sp ff9b89b0 error 4 in libnetsnmpmibs.so.15.1.0[f7df0000+10c000] This is apparently an issue that has affected others: https://bugs.launchpad.net/netsnmp/+bug/489215 http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-server-b...@lists.ubuntu.com/msg26321.html And online resources indicate that 5.5 has a patch to fix it. Any chance of a backport into a stable release of the snmpd package? I think this is a fairly serious bug, as I consider this to be a fairly core functionality of SNMP -- it hurts extensibility of the daemon to not be able to use exec without fear of segfault.
