+ <title>Wireshark: Multiple vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Wireshark is vulnerable to several security issues that may lead to a
+ Denial of Service and/or the execution of arbitrary code.

+ <affected>
+ <package name="net-analyzer/wireshark" auto="yes" arch="*">

+ </package>
+ </affected>
+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Wireshark is a feature-rich network protocol analyzer.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The following vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wireshark.
+ Firstly, if the IPsec ESP parser is used it is susceptible to
+ off-by-one errors, this parser is disabled by default; secondly, the
+ SCSI dissector is vulnerable to an unspecified crash; and finally, the
+ Q.2931 dissector of the SSCOP payload may use all the available memory
+ if a port range is configured. By default, no port ranges are
+ configured.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker might be able to exploit these vulnerabilities, resulting
+ in a crash or the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of
+ the user running Wireshark, possibly the root user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Disable the SCSI and Q.2931 dissectors with the "Analyse" and "Enabled
+ protocols" menus. Make sure the ESP decryption is disabled, with the
+ "Edit -> Preferences -> Protocols -> ESP" menu.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Wireshark users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-analyzer/wireshark-0.99.3&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
