Title:	Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2003:114 (ethereal)
Summary:	NOSUMMARY
Description:	Description: The remote host is missing an update to ethereal announced via advisory MDKSA-2003:114. A number of vulnerabilities were discovered in ethereal that, if exploited, could be used to make ethereal crash or run arbitrary code by injecting malicious malformed packets onto the wire or by convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file. A buffer overflow allows attackers to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and possibly execute arbitrary code using a malformed GTP MSISDN string (CVE-2003-0925). Likewise, a DoS can be caused by using malformed ISAKMP or MEGACO packets (CVE-2003-0926). Finally, a heap-based buffer overflow allows attackers to cause a DoS or execute arbitrary code using the SOCKS dissector (CVE-2003-0927). All three vulnerabilities affect all versions of Ethereal up to and including 0.9.15. This update provides 0.9.16 which corrects all of these issues. Also note that each vulnerability can be exploited by a remote attacker. 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. http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=MDKSA-2003:114 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0925 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0926 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2003-0927 http://www.ethereal.com/appnotes/enpa-sa-00011.html Risk factor : High CVSS Score: 7.5
