Detail
| Several vulnerabilities were discovered upstream in ethereal, a network traffic analyzer. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: CAN-2003-0925 A buffer overflow allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a malformed GTP MSISDN string. CAN-2003-0926 Via certain malformed ISAKMP or MEGACO packets remote attackers are able to cause a denial of service (crash). CAN-2003-0927 A heap-based buffer overflow allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via the SOCKS dissector. CAN-2003-1012 The SMB dissector allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed SMB packet that triggers a segmentation fault during processing of selected packets. CAN-2003-1013 The Q.931 dissector allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a malformed Q.931, which triggers a null dereference. For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 0.9.4-1woody6. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 0.10.0-1. We recommend that you upgrade your ethereal and tethereal packages. |

Open Source Vulnerability Database (OSVDB)
| Id | Description |
|---|---|
| 3270 | Ethereal Q.931 Protocol Dissector DoS Ethereal contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when a specially crafted Q.931 packet is processed by the application and will result in Ethereal crashing. It is unknown if the vulnerability could allow execution of arbitrary code. |
| 3027 | Ethereal GTP MSISDN Overflow A remote overflow exists in Ethereal's GTP Protocol Dissector. The protocol dissector fails to do proper bounds checking resulting in an overflow. With a specially crafted GTP MSISDN packet injected onto a network being monitored or a file being loaded by Ethereal, an attacker can cause Ethereal to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. |
| 3026 | Ethereal/Tethereal ISAKMP And MEGACO Packet Overflow |
| 3018 | Ethereal SMB Protocol Dissector DoS Ethereal contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when a specially crafted SMB packet is processed by the application and will result in Ethereal crashing. It is unknown if the vulnerability could allow execution of arbitrary code. |
| 2752 | Ethereal SOCKS Protocol Dissector Heap Overflow A remote overflow exists in Ethereal's SOCKS Protocol Dissector. The protocol dissector fails to do proper bounds checking resulting in a heap overflow. With a specially crafted packet injected into a network being monitored or a file being loaded by Ethereal, an attacker can cause Ethereal to crash or possibly execute arbitrary code. |
