The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version:
tcpdump (4.9.0).
Security Fix(es):
* Multiple out of bounds read and integer overflow vulnerabilities were
found in tcpdump affecting the decoding of various protocols. An attacker
could create a crafted pcap file or send specially crafted packets to the
network segment where tcpdump is running in live capture mode (without -w)
which could cause it to display incorrect data, crash or enter an infinite
loop. (CVE-2015-0261, CVE-2015-2153, CVE-2015-2154, CVE-2015-2155,
