The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'wireshark' package(s) announced via the DSA-1785-1 advisory. Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Wireshark network traffic analyzer, which may lead to denial of service or the execution of arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies format string vulnerability in the PROFINET dissector, crash in the Check Point High-Availability Protocol dissector, and crash due to malformed Tektronix files

CVE-2009-1210

A format string vulnerability was discovered in the PROFINET dissector.

CVE-2009-1268

The dissector for the Check Point High-Availability Protocol could be forced to crash.

CVE-2009-1269

Malformed Tektronix files could lead to a crash.

The old stable distribution (etch), is only affected by the CPHAP crash, which doesn't warrant an update on its own. The fix will be queued up for an upcoming security update or a point release.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.2-3+lenny5.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.7-1.

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