Wireshark doesn't properly handle chunked encoding in HTTP responses
|
|
(CVE-2007-3389), iSeries capture files (CVE-2007-3390), certain types
|
|
of DCP ETSI packets (CVE-2007-3391), and SSL or MMS packets
|
|
(CVE-2007-3392). An off-by-one error has been discovered in the
|
|
DHCP/BOOTP dissector when handling DHCP-over-DOCSIS packets
|
|
(CVE-2007-3393).
|

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets on a network
|
|
being monitored with Wireshark, possibly resulting in the execution of
|
|
arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running Wireshark which
|
|
might be the root user, or a Denial of Service.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
In order to prevent root compromise, take network captures with tcpdump
|
|
and analyze them running Wireshark as a least privileged user.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All Wireshark users should upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/wireshark-0.99.6"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
