Comments
Jones> Need clarification/verification. | Alderson> Personally, since this one is not only vague, but extremely vague | and not even confirmed, I believe it should be lumped with the previous one | that has been confirmed and is much less vague. | Christey> Correction: this is a RARP (Reverse Address Resolution | Protocol) server. | A colleague of mine with access to Solaris source has noted | that the affected syslog calls can not be fed user-supplied | data, at least for Solaris; if so, then this is not a vulnerability.
