http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fpatches%2F107915&zone_32=107915http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/retrieve.pl?doc=fpatches%2F109039&zone_32=109039-09
The patch description doesn't mention what type of vulnerability other than
"atmsnmpd crashes due to improper handling of malicious SNMPv1 request PDUs"
This is the first time I heard about it myself.  Sun should have mentioned
this problem in an official security advisory.  The patches are also not
listed under
http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/xos-8&nav=pub-patches
 which is the "Recommended & Security Patches for Solaris" page.  Why is it
not on there?  I have no clue.  I guess it is not a security issue or it
isnt a recommended patch.
