Title:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:780
Summary:	Conectiva Security Advisory CLA-2003:780
Description:	The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory CLA-2003:780. Ethereal[1] is a powerful network traffic analyzer with a graphical user interface (GUI). This update announcement addresses several vulnerabilities[2] in ethereal versions prior to 0.9.16. These vulnerabilities can be exploited by an attacker who can insert crafted packets in the wire being monitored by ethereal or make an user open a trace file with such packets inside. Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities can lead to denial of service conditions and/or remote execution of arbitrary code. The following vulnerabilities have been fixed in the 0.9.16 version: - buffer overflow in the GTP protocol dissector (CVE-2003-0925)[3] - denial of service with ISAKMP or MEGACO packets (CVE-2003-0926)[4] - buffer overflow in the SOCKS protocol dissector (CVE-2003-0927)[5] Solution: The apt tool can be used to perform RPM package upgrades by running 'apt-get update' followed by 'apt-get upgrade' http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=CLA-2003:780 http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/index.php?id=a&anuncio=002003 Risk factor : High
