CVE-2001-1279: Lbl Tcpdump

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 4.8% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Buffer overflow in print-rx.c of tcpdump 3.x (probably 3.6x) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via AFS RPC packets with invalid lengths that trigger an integer signedness error, a different vulnerability than CVE-2000-1026.
