  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"Gerald Combs reported several vulnerabilities in ethereal, a popular network traffic analyser. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2006-1932

The OID printing routine is susceptible to an off-by-one error.

CVE-2006-1933

The UMA and BER dissectors could go into an infinite loop.

CVE-2006-1934

The Network Instruments file code could overrun a buffer.

CVE-2006-1935

The COPS dissector contains a potential buffer overflow.

CVE-2006-1936

The telnet dissector contains a buffer overflow.

CVE-2006-1937

Bugs in the SRVLOC and AIM dissector, and in the statistics counter could crash ethereal.

CVE-2006-1938

Null pointer dereferences in the SMB PIPE dissector and when reading a malformed Sniffer capture could crash ethereal.

CVE-2006-1939

Null pointer dereferences in the ASN.1, GSM SMS, RPC and ASN.1-based dissector and an invalid display filter could crash ethereal.

CVE-2006-1940

The SNDCP dissector could cause an unintended abortion.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 0.9.4-1woody15.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.10.10-2sarge5.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your ethereal packages.");
