+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Ethereal is a feature rich network protocol analyzer.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ There are multiple vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal earlier than
+ 0.10.10, including:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>The Etheric, 3GPP2 A11 and IAPP dissectors are vulnerable to buffer
+ overflows (CAN-2005-0704, CAN-2005-0699 and CAN-2005-0739).</li>
+ <li>The GPRS-LLC could crash when the "ignore cipher bit" option is
+ enabled (CAN-2005-0705).</li>
+ <li>Various vulnerabilities in JXTA and sFlow dissectors.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ An attacker might be able to use these vulnerabilities to crash
+ Ethereal and execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
+ running Ethereal, which could be the root user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ For a temporary workaround you can disable all affected protocol
+ dissectors. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to the
+ latest stable version.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Ethereal users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-analyzer/ethereal-0.10.10&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
