Severity
Summary
Net-SNMP 5.0.x before 5.0.10.2, 5.2.x before 5.2.1.2, and 5.1.3, when net-snmp is using stream sockets such as TCP, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon hang and CPU consumption) via a TCP packet of length 1, which triggers an infinite loop.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the
vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base
model, served locally by ML-Gateway.
They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
