NASL family Oracle Linux Local Security Checks NASL id ORACLELINUX_ELSA-2011-0370.NASL description From Red Hat Security Advisory 2011:0370 : Updated wireshark packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5. 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. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in Wireshark. If Wireshark opened a specially crafted capture file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running Wireshark. (CVE-2011-0024) 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-2010-3445, CVE-2011-0538, CVE-2011-1139, CVE-2011-1140, CVE-2011-1141, CVE-2011-1143) Users of Wireshark should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues.

NASL family Mandriva Local Security Checks NASL id MANDRIVA_MDVSA-2011-044.NASL description This advisory updates wireshark to the latest version (1.2.15), fixing several security issues : Wireshark 1.5.0, 1.4.3, and earlier frees an uninitialized pointer during processing of a .pcap file in the pcap-ng format, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a malformed file (CVE-2011-0538). Heap-based buffer overflow in wiretap/dct3trace.c in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.14 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a long record in a Nokia DCT3 trace file (CVE-2011-0713). wiretap/pcapng.c in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.14 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a pcap-ng file that contains a large packet-length field (CVE-2011-1139). Multiple stack consumption vulnerabilities in the dissect_ms_compressed_string and dissect_mscldap_string functions in Wireshark 1.0.x, 1.2.0 through 1.2.14, and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite recursion) via a crafted (1) SMB or (2) Connection-less LDAP (CLDAP) packet (CVE-2011-1140). epan/dissectors/packet-ldap.c in Wireshark 1.0.x, 1.2.0 through 1.2.14, and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via (1) a long LDAP filter string or (2) an LDAP filter string containing many elements (CVE-2011-1141). Stack consumption vulnerability in the dissect_ber_choice function in the BER dissector in Wireshark 1.2.x through 1.2.15 and 1.4.x through 1.4.4 might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via vectors involving self-referential ASN.1 CHOICE values (CVE-2011-1142). epan/dissectors/packet-ntlmssp.c in the NTLMSSP dissector in Wireshark before 1.4.4 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted .pcap file (CVE-2011-1143). The updated packages have been upgraded to the latest 1.2.x version (1.2.15) and patched to correct these issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 52593 published 2011-03-09 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2011-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/52593 title Mandriva Linux Security Advisory : wireshark (MDVSA-2011:044) code #%NASL_MIN_LEVEL 80502 # # (C) Tenable Network Security, Inc. # # The descriptive text and package checks in this plugin were # extracted from Mandriva Linux Security Advisory MDVSA-2011:044. # The text itself is copyright (C) Mandriva S.A. # include("compat.inc"); if (description) { script_id(52593); script_version("1.13"); script_cvs_date("Date: 2019/08/02 13:32:54"); script_cve_id("CVE-2011-0538", "CVE-2011-0713", "CVE-2011-1139", "CVE-2011-1140", "CVE-2011-1141", "CVE-2011-1142", "CVE-2011-1143"); script_bugtraq_id(46167, 46416, 46626); script_xref(name:"MDVSA", value:"2011:044"); script_name(english:"Mandriva Linux Security Advisory : wireshark (MDVSA-2011:044)"); script_summary(english:"Checks rpm output for the updated packages"); script_set_attribute( attribute:"synopsis", value: "The remote Mandriva Linux host is missing one or more security updates." ); script_set_attribute( attribute:"description", value: "This advisory updates wireshark to the latest version (1.2.15), fixing several security issues : Wireshark 1.5.0, 1.4.3, and earlier frees an uninitialized pointer during processing of a .pcap file in the pcap-ng format, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a malformed file (CVE-2011-0538).

NASL family Red Hat Local Security Checks NASL id REDHAT-RHSA-2011-0370.NASL description Updated wireshark packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 and 5. 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. A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in Wireshark. If Wireshark opened a specially crafted capture file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running Wireshark. (CVE-2011-0024) 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-2010-3445, CVE-2011-0538, CVE-2011-1139, CVE-2011-1140, CVE-2011-1141, CVE-2011-1143) Users of Wireshark should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported patches to correct these issues. All running instances of Wireshark must be restarted for the update to take effect. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 52750 published 2011-03-22 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2011-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/52750 title RHEL 4 / 5 : wireshark (RHSA-2011:0370) NASL family Gentoo Local Security Checks NASL id GENTOO_GLSA-201110-02.NASL description The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201110-02 (Wireshark: Multiple vulnerabilities) Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wireshark. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details. Impact : A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets on a network being monitored by Wireshark, entice a user to open a malformed packet trace file using Wireshark, or deploy a specially crafted Lua script for use by Wireshark, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code, or a Denial of Service condition.
