An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
is now available.
Description:
This update for dhcp fixes the following issues:
Security issue fixed:
- CVE-2016-2774: Fixed a denial of service attack against the DHCP server
over the OMAPI TCP socket, which could be used by network adjacent
attackers to make the DHCP server non-functional (bsc#969820).
Non security issues fixed:
- Rename freeaddrinfo(), getaddrinfo() and getnameinfo() in the internal
libirs library that does not consider /etc/hosts and /etc/nsswitch.conf
to use irs_ prefix. This prevents name conflicts which would result in
overriding standard glibc functions used by libldap. (bsc#972907)
