GLSA-200411-01 (ppp: Remote denial of service vulnerability)

    The pppd server improperly verifies header fields, making it vulnerable to
    denial of service attacks.
  
Impact

    An attacker can cause the pppd server to access memory that it isn\'t
    allowed to, causing the server to crash. No code execution is possible with
    this vulnerability, because no data is getting copied.
  
Workaround

    There is no known workaround at this time.');
