Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50639
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:002 (ethereal)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to ethereal
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:002.

Two vulnerabilities were discovered in versions of Ethereal prior to
0.10.0 that can be exploited to make Ethereal crash by injecting
malformed packets onto the wire or by convincing a user to read a
malformed packet trace file. The first vulnerability is in the SMB
dissector and the second is in the Q.391 dissector. It is not known
whether or not these issues could lead to the execution of arbitrary
code.

The updated packages provide Ethereal 0.10.0 which is not vulnerable
to these issues.

Affected versions: 9.1, 9.2

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
