3. Description:

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration
information, including an IP address, a subnet mask, and a broadcast
address. The dhcp packages provide a relay agent and ISC DHCP service
required to enable and administer DHCP on a network.

Security Fix(es):

* It was found that the DHCP daemon did not properly clean up closed OMAPI
connections in certain cases. A remote attacker able to connect to the
OMAPI port could use this flaw to exhaust file descriptors in the DHCP
daemon, leading to a denial of service in the OMAPI functionality.
(CVE-2017-3144)
