Fedora 38: 2023-33906c7c4a Critical: Libpcap Network Monitoring Update

Ubuntu 22.04 unveils enhancements for OpenSSH and SFTP, improving secure file transfer capabilities for optimal security.
New versions of libpcap and tcpdump

Summary

Libpcap provides a portable framework for low-level network

monitoring. Libpcap can provide network statistics collection,

security monitoring and network debugging. Since almost every system

vendor provides a different interface for packet capture, the libpcap

authors created this system-independent API to ease in porting and to

alleviate the need for several system-dependent packet capture modules

in each application.

Install libpcap if you need to do low-level network traffic monitoring

on your network.
