The remote host is missing an update to ethereal
announced via advisory DSA 853-1.

Several security problems have been discovered in ethereal, a commonly
used network traffic analyser. The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2005-2360
Memory allocation errors in the LDAP dissector can cause a denial
of service.

CVE-2005-2361
Various errors in the AgentX, PER, DOCSIS, RADIUS, Telnet, IS-IS,
HTTP, DCERPC, DHCP and SCTP dissectors can cause a denial of
service.

CVE-2005-2363
Various errors in the SMPP, 802.3, H1 and DHCP dissectors can
cause a denial of service.

CVE-2005-2364
Null pointer dereferences in the WBXML and GIOP dissectors can
cause a denial of service.

CVE-2005-2365
A buffer overflow and null pointer dereferences in the SMB
dissector can cause a denial of service.

CVE-2005-2366
Wrong address calculation in the BER dissector can cause an
infinite loop or abortion.

CVE-2005-2367
Format string vulnerabilities in the several dissectors allow
remote attackers to write to arbitrary memory locations and thus
gain privileges.

For the old stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 0.9.4-1woody13.
