This page returns a 500 error when I visit it; since Google has it indexed
presumably that is because I am not logged in with a red hat account with
sufficient permission.

There is nothing immediately obvious in that rpm's changelog or in any of
the patches.  (Obviously I just did a few greps and didn't read all 50k
lines of patches.)

Note that the "5.4.1-5.2" release you report is not a net-snmp project
release number; it appears to be a Mandriva release.  The net-snmp project
has no influence over what additional patches vendors like Redhat or
Mandriva include.

Please help us to understand the present version we use has the fix

I recommend building a supported version yourself, like 5.7.2.1 or 5.4.4.
 If that version still shows the issue, then file a bug at
http://www.net-snmp.org/bugs/ , preferably with more information about how
you generated the packet with the bad serialization.
