| Description: | Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Wireshark network traffic analyzer, which may lead to denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: The RPL dissector could be tricked into an infinite loop. The CIP dissector could be tricked into excessive memory allocation. For the old stable distribution (sarge), these problems have been fixed in version 0.10.10-2sarge11. (In Sarge Wireshark used to be called Ethereal). For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 0.99.4-5.etch.2. For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 0.99.7-1. We recommend that you upgrade your wireshark packages. |
