Version 3.0.2 (Sophie Germain) Released

Lorenz Kästle, July 26, 2026

The Monitoring Plugins Development Team announces version 3.0.2 of the Monitoring Plugins. This is a security release which fixes vulnerabilities in check_dhcp, check_snmp, check_real and check_curl.

This release bundles patches for four potential security problems for some network facing plugins (check_dhcp, check_snmp, check_real and check_curl). All four of them allowed a malicious (or faulty) communications partner writes to uncontrolled memory

We thank Christopher Kreft (again) for reporting the problem.

The codename for this release is "Sophie Germain".

There are some other small changes which come with this release which fix some compiler warnings.
