Fedora 31: 2020-193da8cf44 Critical: arpwatch Buffer Overflow Fix

The arpwatch package contains arpwatch and arpsnmp. Arpwatch and

arpsnmp are both network monitoring tools. Both utilities monitor

Ethernet or FDDI network traffic and build databases of Ethernet/IP

address pairs, and can report certain changes via email.

Install the arpwatch package if you need networking monitoring devices

which will automatically keep track of the IP addresses on your

network.
