[bgpd] low-impact DoS: crash on malformed community with debug set
2007-09-07 Paul Jakma <paul.jakma@sun.com>
* (general) bgpd can be made crash by remote peers if debug
bgp updates is set, due to NULL pointer dereference.
Reported by "Mu Security Research Team",
<security@musecurity.com>.
* bgp_attr.c: (bgp_attr_community) If community length is 0,
don't set the community-present attribute bit, just return
early.
* bgp_debug.c: (community_str,community_com2str) Check com
pointer before dereferencing.
