Wireshark / Ethereal 0.9.0 to 1.2.4 Multiple Vulnerabilities

The installed version of Wireshark or Ethereal is potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  • The Daintree SNA file parser can overflow a buffer.
    (Bug 4294)

  • The SMB and SMB2 dissectors can crash. (Bug 4301)

  • The IPMI dissector can crash on Windows. (Bug 4319)

These vulnerabilities can result in a denial of service, or possibly arbitrary code execution. A remote attacker can 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 can be exploited remotely (from the same network segment).
