NASL family Fedora Local Security Checks NASL id FEDORA_2009-7998.NASL description Rebased to 1.2.x, fixing several security flaws, see the security advisory for details: http://www.wireshark.org/security/wnpa-sec-2009-04.html Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 43015 published 2009-12-07 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2009-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/43015 title Fedora 10 : wireshark-1.2.1-1.fc10 (2009-7998) NASL family Windows NASL id WIRESHARK_1_2_1.NASL description The installed version of Wireshark or Ethereal is affected by multiple issues : - The IPMI dissector could overrun a buffer. (Bug 3559) - The AFS dissector could crash. (Bug 3564) - The Infiniband dissector could crash on some platforms. - The Bluetooth L2CAP dissector could crash. (Bug 3572) - The RADIUS dissector could crash. (Bug 3578) - The MIOP dissector could crash. (Bug 3652) - The sFlow dissector could use excessive CPU and memory. (Bug 3570) These vulnerabilities could result in a denial of service, or possibly arbitrary code execution. A remote attacker could exploit these issues by tricking a user into opening a maliciously crafted capture file. Additionally, if Wireshark is running in promiscuous mode, one of these issues could be exploited remotely (from the same network segment). last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 40335 published 2009-07-21 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2009-2018 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/40335 title Wireshark / Ethereal 0.9.2 to 1.2.0 Multiple Vulnerabilities NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_ETHEREAL-6443.NASL description Flaws in the AFS dissector allowed attackers to crash ethereal via specially crafted network traffic.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section. Wireshark is a program for monitoring network traffic. Wireshark was previously known as Ethereal. An invalid pointer dereference flaw was found in the Wireshark SMB and SMB2 dissectors. If Wireshark read a malformed packet off a network or opened a malicious dump file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running Wireshark. (CVE-2009-4377) Several buffer overflow flaws were found in the Wireshark LWRES dissector. If Wireshark read a malformed packet off a network or opened a malicious dump file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running Wireshark. (CVE-2010-0304) Several denial of service flaws were found in Wireshark. Wireshark could crash or stop responding if it read a malformed packet off a network, or opened a malicious dump file. (CVE-2009-2560, CVE-2009-2562, CVE-2009-2563, CVE-2009-3550, CVE-2009-3829) Users of Wireshark should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain Wireshark version 1.0.11, and resolve these issues.
