+    Multiple Denial of Service vulnerabilities have been discovered in
+    Wireshark.

+  <background>
+    <p>
+    Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer with a graphical front-end.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Errors exist in:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>
+    the X.509sat dissector because of an uninitialized variable and the
+    Roofnet dissector because a NULL pointer may be passed to the
+    g_vsnprintf() function (CVE-2008-1561).</li>
+    <li>
+    the LDAP dissector because a NULL pointer may be passed to the
+    ep_strdup_printf() function (CVE-2008-1562).</li>
+    <li>
+    the SCCP dissector because it does not reset a pointer once the packet
+    has been processed (CVE-2008-1563).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a
+    malformed packet or enticing a user to read a malformed packet trace
+    file, causing a Denial of Service.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    Disable the X.509sat, Roofnet, LDAP, and SCCP dissectors.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Wireshark users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/wireshark-1.0.0"</code>
