Ethereal Multiple Protocol Dissector Vulnerabilities

It has been reported that Ethereal is prone to multiple vulnerabilities in various protocol dissectors. These issues can allow a remote attacker to carry out denial of service attacks and possibly exploit a buffer overflow vulnerability.

The denial of service issues are reported to affect Ethereal version 0.10.3 and the buffer overflow condition affects Ethereal 0.10.1 to 0.10.3.

These issues may be exploited during a live capture or when a malicious trace file is loaded.

Due to a lack of information, further details are not currently available. This BID will be updated as more information becomes available.
