I am concerned that allowing SNMP traps to pass from or through a FW, into a
console on an enterprise network, is opening up the assets which the FW is
protecting to exploits from the outside world. But it's been more of a
hunch than something I can actually demonstrate.
I would greatly appreciate anyone's thoughts on whether this danger is real
or perceived. If real, how might evil-doers actually gain from such a
capability? Use of applications such as OpenView, NetIQ and NetCool come to
mind ...
