    Description:


    This collective update for net-snmp provides the following
    fixes:

    * protect against bogus failures (returning 0) and
    subsequent double-frees (bnc#734454)
    * logrotate: use "reload" instead of "try-restart" to
    avoid an unnecessary stop/start cycle in the agent
    (bnc#707636)
    * fix inconsistent handling of TZ offsetsa (bnc#695786)
    * catch buffer overrun on 64-bit systems (bnc#695786)
    * remove useless code (bnc#695786)
    * fix crash when comparing invalid OIDs (bnc#695786)
    * fix memory leaks on udpEndpointTable (bnc#695786)
    * check for NULL pointer before dereferencing
    (bnc#695786)
    * return a value from sprint_realloc_value even if no
    subtree is located (bnc#695786)
    * misc fixes for freeing memory on error conditions
    (bnc#695786)
    * increase size of initial proc I/O buffer (bnc#695786)
    * avoid reading past end of buffer (bnc#695786)
    * avoid crash due to division by zero (bnc#695786)
    * retrieve error counters for the EtherLike-MIB
    (bnc#629073)
    * improve EtherLike-MIB support (bnc#629073)
    * fix file descriptor leaks in RMON and ETHERLIKE MIBs
    (bnc#634530)
    * fix memory leak in RMON and ETHERLIKE MIBs
    (bnc#634530)
    * change default log level from DEBUG to INFO to avoid
    the "error on subcontainer 'ia_addr' insert (-1)" messages
    (bnc#623497)
    * UCD-SNMP: add cpusteal, cpuguest, cpuguestnice
    (bnc#604297)
    * suppress 32-bit counter truncation warnings
    (bnc#604297)
    * use ethtool's high speed struct info for 100G+ NICs
    (bnc#431495)
    * fix valgrind warning and strlen calculation
    (bnc#431495)
    * report real ifSpeed of network interface even if it
    is down (bnc#431495)

    snmp-bridge-mib: - don't add the bridge itself to the
    dot1dBaseTable entry (bnc#720440) - fix data
    interpretation of ifindex attr (bnc#719930) - add a Perl
    implementation of BRIDGE-MIB (bnc#694026)
