Detail
This advisory updates wireshark to the latest version (1.6.3), fixing several security issues: An uninitialized variable in the CSN.1 dissector could cause a crash (CVE-2011-4100). Huzaifa Sidhpurwala of Red Hat Security Response Team discovered that the Infiniband dissector could dereference a NULL pointer (CVE-2011-4101). Huzaifa Sidhpurwala of Red Hat Security Response Team discovered a buffer overflow in the ERF file reader (CVE-2011-4102). The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest 1.6.x version (1.6.3) which is not vulnerable to these issues. |
