I've had an allegation that snmpd can be used for worse than DoS... I have
not had time to visit the issue however. I have no idea whether the
allegation has any factual basis...
Anyone want to have a look at the snmpd code? A good starting point would
be the handling of data sent to the listening network socket.
Cheers
