38 | <p> |
39 | Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer with a graphical front-end. |

43 | <p> |
44 | Errors exist in: |
45 | </p> |
46 | <ul> |
47 | <li> |
48 | the X.509sat dissector because of an uninitialized variable and the |
49 | Roofnet dissector because a NULL pointer may be passed to the |
50 | g_vsnprintf() function (CVE-2008-1561).</li> |
51 | <li> |
52 | the LDAP dissector because a NULL pointer may be passed to the |
53 | ep_strdup_printf() function (CVE-2008-1562).</li> |
54 | <li> |
55 | the SCCP dissector because it does not reset a pointer once the packet |
56 | has been processed (CVE-2008-1563).</li> |
57 | </ul> |
58 | </description> |
59 | <impact type="normal"> |
60 | <p> |
61 | A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a |
62 | malformed packet or enticing a user to read a malformed packet trace |
63 | file, causing a Denial of Service. |
64 | </p> |
65 | </impact> |
66 | <workaround> |
67 | <p> |
68 | Disable the X.509sat, Roofnet, LDAP, and SCCP dissectors. |
69 | </p> |
70 | </workaround> |
71 | <resolution> |
72 | <p> |
73 | All Wireshark users should upgrade to the latest version: |
74 | </p> |
75 | <code> |
76 | # emerge --sync |
77 | # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/wireshark-1.0.0"</code> |
78 | </resolution> |
