Synopsis
dhcp bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated dhcp packages that fix a bug on 64-bit architectures are now available.
Description
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a protocol which allows
individual devices on an IP network to get their own network
configuration information (IP address, subnetmask, broadcast address,
etc.) from a DHCP server. The overall purpose of DHCP is to make it
easier to administer a large network. The dhcp package includes the
ISC DHCP service and relay agent.
The DHCP client software (dhclient) fails to background itself on certain
64-bit architectures, most notably those architectures capable of operating
in 64-bit and 32-bit mode simultaneously. The problem occurs when dhclient
captures the process ID via a pointer and fails to account for pointer size
differences on 64-bit systems.
Users should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve this issue.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:
up2date
This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
