+ Wireshark is a network protocol analyzer with a graphical front-end. +

+
+ +

+ The following vulnerabilities were reported: +

+
    +
  • + Multiple buffer overflows in the NCP dissector (CVE-2008-3146). +
  • +
  • + Infinite loop in the NCP dissector (CVE-2008-3932). +
  • +
  • + Invalid read in the tvb_uncompress() function when processing zlib + compressed data (CVE-2008-3933). +
  • +
  • + Unspecified error when processing Textronix .rf5 files + (CVE-2008-3934).
  • +
+
+ +

+ A remote attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending + specially crafted packets on a network being monitored by Wireshark or + by enticing a user to read a malformed packet trace file, causing a + Denial of Service. +

+
+ +

+ There is no known workaround at this time. +

+
+ +

+ All Wireshark users should upgrade to the latest version: +

+ + # emerge --sync + # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-analyzer/wireshark-1.0.3" +
