Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2002-0353 (CCN-8952)

Assigned:2002-04-25
Published:2002-04-25
Updated:2008-09-10
Summary:The ASN.1 parser in Ethereal 0.9.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a certain malformed packet, which causes Ethereal to allocate memory incorrectly, possibly due to zero-length fields.
