This update for net-tools fixes the following issues:
Security issues fixed:
- CVE-2025-46836: missing bounds check in
get_namemay lead to a stack buffer overflow (bsc#1243581). - Avoid unsafe use of
memcpyinifconfig(bsc#1248687). - Prevent overflow in
ax25andnetrom(bsc#1248687). - Fix stack buffer overflow in
parse_hex(bsc#1248687). - Fix stack buffer overflow in
proc_gen_fmt(bsc#1248687).
Other issues fixed:
- Allow use of long interface names after CVE-2025-46836 fix, even if they are not accepted by the kernel (bsc#1248410).
- Fix netrom support.

Описание
net-tools is a collection of programs that form the base set of the NET-3 networking distribution for the Linux operating system. Inn versions up to and including 2.10, the Linux network utilities (like ifconfig) from the net-tools package do not properly validate the structure of /proc files when showing interfaces. `get_name()` in `interface.c` copies interface labels from `/proc/net/dev` into a fixed 16-byte stack buffer without bounds checking, leading to possible arbitrary code execution or crash. The known attack path does not require privilege but also does not provide privilege escalation in this scenario. A patch is available and expected to be part of version 2.20.
