tcpdump 3.8 through 4.6.2 might allow remote attackers to obtain sensitive information from memory or cause a denial of service (packet loss or segmentation fault) via a crafted Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) packet, which triggers an out-of-bounds memory access.

CVE-2014-8769 [MEDIUM] CVE-2014-8769 tcpdump: unreliable output using malformed AOVD payload
CVE-2014-8769 tcpdump: unreliable output using malformed AOVD payload
Following issue was reported in [1]:
...
The application decoder for the Ad hoc On-Demand Distance Vector (AODV) protocol fails to perform input validation and performs unsafe out-of-bound accesses. The application will usually not crash, but perform out-of-bounds accesses and output/leak larger amounts of invalid data, which might lead to dropped packets. It is unknown if other payload exists that might trigger segfaults.
To reproduce start tcpdump on a network interface
sudo tcpdump -i lo -s 0 -n -v
(running the program with sudo might hide a possible segfault message on certain environments, see dmesg for details)
and use the following python program to generate a frame on the network (might also need sudo):
