Type-Defect
Priority-Medium

Reported by cont...@hynesim.org, Apr 22, 2008

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start a virtual machine on tap1
2. Start honeyd on another interface with
"sudo honeyd -i eth0 -i tap1 test.config -d
3. Ping from inside the virtual machine toward any of the honeypot machines.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Honeyd segfaults.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN HEAD and latest package, same result. It has been tried on Fedora 8,
Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 beta.

Please provide any additional information below.
I've provided as attachments a patch that seems to correct the issue. Our
patched version of honeyd is regularly used, and has yet to show any side
effects. Also attached is the config file used.

This bug has also been notified on the forum, by someone who wasn't using a
virtual machine, but a real one.
