    descriptionUpdated wireshark packages that fix multiple security issues, several bugs, and add various enhancements are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. 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, previously known as Ethereal, is a network protocol analyzer. It is used to capture and browse the traffic running on a computer network. Two flaws were found in Wireshark. 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-2013-3559, CVE-2013-4083) 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-2012-2392, CVE-2012-3825, CVE-2012-4285, CVE-2012-4288, CVE-2012-4289, CVE-2012-4290, CVE-2012-4291, CVE-2012-4292, CVE-2012-5595, CVE-2012-5597, CVE-2012-5598, CVE-2012-5599, CVE-2012-5600, CVE-2012-6056, CVE-2012-6059, CVE-2012-6060, CVE-2012-6061, CVE-2012-6062, CVE-2013-3557, CVE-2013-3561, CVE-2013-4081, CVE-2013-4927, CVE-2013-4931, CVE-2013-4932, CVE-2013-4933, CVE-2013-4934, CVE-2013-4935, CVE-2013-4936, CVE-2013-5721) The wireshark packages have been upgraded to upstream version 1.8.10, which provides a number of bug fixes and enhancements over the previous versions. For more information on the bugs fixed, enhancements included, and supported protocols introduced, refer to the Wireshark Release Notes, linked to in the References. (BZ#711024) This update also fixes the following bugs : * Previously, Wireshark did not parse the RECLAIM-COMPLETE opcode when inspecting traffic generated by NFSv4.1. A patch has been provided to enable the parsing of the RECLAIM_COMPLETE opcode, and Wireshark is now able to properly dissect and handle NFSv4.1 traffic. (BZ#750712) * Prior to this update, frame arrival times in a text file were reported one hour ahead from the timestamps in the packet capture file. This resulted in various failures being reported by the dfilter-test.py test suite. To fix this bug, frame arrival timestamps have been shifted by one hour, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#832021) * The

    descriptionThe remote Solaris system is missing necessary patches to address security updates : - The P1 dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not properly initialize a global variable, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4920) - Off-by-one error in the dissect_radiotap function in epan/dissectors/ packet-ieee80211-radiotap.c in the Radiotap dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4921) - Double free vulnerability in the dissect_dcom_ActivationProperties function in epan/dissectors/packet-dcom-sysact.c in the DCOM ISystemActivator dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4922) - Memory leak in the dissect_dcom_ActivationProperties function in epan/ dissectors/packet-dcom-sysact.c in the DCOM ISystemActivator dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via crafted packets. (CVE-2013-4923) - epan/dissectors/packet-dcom-sysact.c in the DCOM ISystemActivator dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not properly validate certain index values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4924) - Integer signedness error in epan/dissectors/packet-dcom-sysact.c in the DCOM ISystemActivator dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4925) - epan/dissectors/packet-dcom-sysact.c in the DCOM ISystemActivator dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not properly determine whether there is remaining packet data to process, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4926) - Integer signedness error in the get_type_length function in epan/dissectors/ packet-btsdp.c in the Bluetooth SDP dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop and CPU consumption) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4927) - Integer signedness error in the dissect_headers function in epan/dissectors/ packet-btobex.c in the Bluetooth OBEX dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4928) - The parseFields function in epan/dissectors/packet-dis-pdus.c in the DIS dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not terminate packet-data processing after finding zero remaining bytes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4929) - The dissect_dvbci_tpdu_hdr function in epan/dissectors/packet-dvbci.c in the DVB-CI dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not validate a certain length value before decrementing it, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and application exit) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4930) - epan/proto.c in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loop) via a crafted packet that is not properly handled by the GSM RR dissector. (CVE-2013-4931) - Multiple array index errors in epan/dissectors/packet-gsm_a_common.c in the GSM A Common dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4932) - The netmon_open function in wiretap/netmon.c in the Netmon file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not properly allocate memory, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet-trace file. (CVE-2013-4933) - The netmon_open function in wiretap/netmon.c in the Netmon file parser in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not initialize certain structure members, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet-trace file. (CVE-2013-4934) - The dissect_per_length_determinant function in epan/dissectors/packet-per.c in the ASN.1 PER dissector in Wireshark 1.8.x before 1.8.9 and 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not initialize a length field in certain abnormal situations, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted packet. (CVE-2013-4935) - The IsDFP_Frame function in plugins/profinet/packet-pn-rt.c in the PROFINET Real-Time dissector in Wireshark 1.10.x before 1.10.1 does not validate MAC addresses, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) via a crafted packet.

A patch has been provided to enable the parsing of the RECLAIM_COMPLETE opcode, and Wireshark is now able to properly dissect and handle NFSv4.1 traffic. - Prior to this update, frame arrival times in a text file were reported one hour ahead from the timestamps in the packet capture file. This resulted in various failures being reported by the dfilter-test.py test suite. To fix this bug, frame arrival timestamps have been shifted by one hour, thus fixing this bug. - The
