An uncontrolled resource consumption flaw was discovered in the way tcpdump prints BGP packets. The BGP protocol allows ATTR_SET to be nested as many times as the message can accommodate, however when a specially crafted packet is crafted and parsed by tcpdump, this may lead to stack exhaustion due to uncontrolled recursion. System availability is the highest threat from this vulnerability.
