Thanks for the quick reply Frank.

IMO a statement on the SNMP4J site regarding those two cert
vulnerabilities would be helpful.

Regards,
Scott.

Scott,

Obviously, I cannot confirm that "SNMP4J is not vulnerable to *any*
attacks". Sorry, this is not how software works.
SNMP4J is not affected by the latest NET-SNMP bug
(http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/878044)
and it is not affected by
http://www.cert.org/advisories/CA-2002-03.html

You can search the mailing list archive using your favorite search
engine. With Google enter your search string and then append " SNMPv3
site:http://lists.agentpp.org/pipermail/snmp4j"

Best regards,
Frank
