Topic

Updated wireshark packages that fix several security issues are now
available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having moderate
security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores,
which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability

Description

Wireshark is a program for monitoring network traffic. Wireshark was
previously known as Ethereal.

Multiple buffer overflow flaws were found in the Wireshark SigComp
Universal Decompressor Virtual Machine (UDVM) dissector. If Wireshark read
a malformed packet off a network or opened a malicious dump file, it could
crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user running Wireshark.
(CVE-2010-2287, CVE-2010-2995)

Several denial of service flaws were found in Wireshark. Wireshark could

CVE-2010-2286)

Users of Wireshark should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain
