Debian Bug     : 384528 334880

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Ethereal network
scanner, which may lead to the execution of arbitrary code. The Common
Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2006-4333

    It was discovered that the Q.2391 dissector is vulnerable to denial
    of service caused by memory exhaustion.

CVE-2005-3241

    It was discovered that the FC-FCS, RSVP and ISIS-LSP dissectors are
    vulnerable to denial of service caused by memory exhaustion.

CVE-2005-3242

    It was discovered that the IrDA and SMB dissectors are vulnerable to
    denial of service caused by memory corruption.

CVE-2005-3243

    It was discovered that the SLIMP3 and AgentX dissectors are vulnerable
    to code injection caused by buffer overflows.

CVE-2005-3244

    It was discovered that the BER dissector is vulnerable to denial of
    service caused by an infinite loop.

CVE-2005-3246

    It was discovered that the NCP and RTnet dissectors are vulnerable to
    denial of service caused by a null pointer dereference.

CVE-2005-3248

    It was discovered that the X11 dissector is vulnerable denial of service
    caused by a division through zero.

This update also fixes a 64 bit-specific regression in the ASN.1 decoder, which
has been introduced in a previous DSA.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.10.10-2sarge8.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.99.2-5.1 of wireshark, the network sniffer formerly known as
ethereal.

We recommend that you upgrade your ethereal packages.


Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.


Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 alias sarge
- --------------------------------

Stable updates are available for alpha, amd64, arm, hppa, i386, ia64, m68k, 
mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390 and sparc.
