issues were fixed in libpcap:\n\n- Provide a -devel-static subpackage that contains the static\n  libraries and all the extra dependencies which are not needed\n  for dynamic linking.\n- Fix handling of packet count in the TPACKET_V3 inner loop\n- Filter out duplicate looped back CAN frames.\n- Fix the handling of loopback filters for IPv6 packets.\n- Add a link-layer header type for RDS (IEC 62106) groups.\n- Handle all CAN captures with pcap-linux.c, in cooked mode.\n- Removes the need for the 'host-endian' link-layer header type.\n- Have separate DLTs for big-endian and host-endian SocketCAN headers.\n- Properly check for sock_recv() errors.\n- Re-impose some of Winsock's limitations on sock_recv().\n- Replace sprintf() with pcap_snprintf().\n- Fix signature of pcap_stats_ex_remote().\n- Have rpcap_remoteact_getsock() return a SOCKET and supply an 'is active' flag.\n- Clean up {DAG, Septel, Myricom SNF}-only builds.\n- pcap_create_interface() needs the interface name on Linux.\n- Clean up hardware time stamp support: the 'any' device does not support any time stamp types.\n- Recognize 802.1ad nested VLAN tag in vlan filter.\n- Support for filtering Geneve encapsulated packets.\n- Fix handling of zones for BPF on Solaris\n- Added bpf_filter1() with extensions\n- EBUSY can now be returned by SNFv3 code.\n- Don't crash on filters testing a non-existent link-layer type field.\n- Fix sending in non-blocking mode on Linux with memory-mapped capture.\n- Fix timestamps when reading pcap-ng files on big-endian machines.\n- Fixes for byte order issues with NFLOG captures\n- Handle using cooked mode for DLT_NETLINK in activate_new().\n","status":"published","published":"2017-04-26T15:31:46Z","modified":"2026-02-04T03:51:20.043246Z","updated_at":"2026-11-02T15:53:43.83457Z"},{"id":"UBUNTU-CVE-2014-8769","description":"tcpdump
