|
|
There are numerous vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal prior
|
|
to 0.10.13, including:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The SLIM3 and AgentX dissectors
|
|
could overflow a buffer (CVE-2005-3243).</li>
|
|
<li>iDEFENSE discovered a
|
|
buffer overflow in the SRVLOC dissector (CVE-2005-3184).</li>
|
|
<li>Multiple potential crashes in many dissectors have been fixed, see
|
|
References for further details.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Furthermore an infinite
|
|
loop was discovered in the IRC protocol dissector of the 0.10.13
|
|
release (CVE-2005-3313).
|
|
</p>

<impact type="high">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker might be able to use these vulnerabilities to crash
|
|
Ethereal or 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 ">=net-analyzer/ethereal-0.10.13-r1"</code>
|
|
</resolution>
