Frank,

do you have specific details of what the issues are (were) with versions of 
SNMP++ before 3.1.4b?

I have upgraded to 3.1.6, but my QA & marketing guys are asking me to find 
out what to tell clients.

Is there a 'major' issue that *requires* clients to upgrade?
For example, is the most serious problem a DoS issue, or could the issue 
cause execution of malicious code?

My own code runs on win2k. Are there different issues with windows / *nix 
code?

Al,

I posted a message regarding the CERT/CC Advisory a few days
ago to the AGENT++ mailing list. The answer to your question is:
Yes, SNMP++ before v3.1.4b had a problem regarding this.
AGENT++ is not affected. So upgrade to v3.1.5 and recompile
everything.That's all.

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Frank
