+ <description>
+ <p>
+ There are numerous vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal prior
+ to 0.10.11, including:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>The ANSI A and DHCP dissectors are
+ vulnerable to format string vulnerabilities.</li>
+ <li>The DISTCC,
+ FCELS, SIP, ISIS, CMIP, CMP, CMS, CRMF, ESS, OCSP, PKIX1Explitit, PKIX
+ Qualified, X.509, Q.931, MEGACO, NCP, ISUP, TCAP and Presentation
+ dissectors are vulnerable to buffer overflows.</li>
+ <li>The KINK, WSP,
+ SMB Mailslot, H.245, MGCP, Q.931, RPC, GSM and SMB NETLOGON dissectors
+ are vulnerable to pointer handling errors.</li>
+ <li>The LMP, KINK,
+ MGCP, RSVP, SRVLOC, EIGRP, MEGACO, DLSw, NCP and L2TP dissectors are
+ vulnerable to looping problems.</li>
+ <li>The Telnet and DHCP dissectors
+ could abort.</li>
+ <li>The TZSP, Bittorrent, SMB, MGCP and ISUP
+ dissectors could cause a segmentation fault.</li>
+ <li>The WSP, 802.3
+ Slow protocols, BER, SMB Mailslot, SMB, NDPS, IAX2, RADIUS, SMB PIPE,
+ MRDISC and TCAP dissectors could throw assertions.</li>
+ <li>The DICOM,
+ NDPS and ICEP dissectors are vulnerable to memory handling errors.</li>
+ <li>The GSM MAP, AIM, Fibre Channel,SRVLOC, NDPS, LDAP and NTLMSSP
+ dissectors could terminate abnormallly.</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>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Ethereal users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/ethereal-0.10.11"</code>
+ </resolution>
