    ospfd: CERT-FI #514837 (uknown LSA type segfault)
    
    This vulnerability was reported by CROSS project. They have also
    suggested a fix to the problem, which was found acceptable.
    
    Quagga ospfd does not seem to handle unknown LSA types in a Link State
    Update message correctly. If LSA type is something else than one
    supported by Quagga, the default handling of unknown types leads to an
    error.
