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).
