Problem description: Ethereal is a program for monitoring network traffic. Several denial of service bugs were found in Ethereal's protocol dissectors. Ethereal could crash or stop responding if it reads a malformed packet off the network. (CVE-2006-1932, CVE-2006-1933, CVE-2006-1937, CVE-2006-1938, CVE-2006-1939, CVE-2006-1940) Several buffer overflow bugs were found in Ethereal's COPS, telnet, and ALCAP dissectors as well as Network Instruments file code and NetXray/Windows Sniffer file code. Ethereal could crash or execute arbitrary code if it reads a malformed packet off the network. (CVE-2006-1934, CVE-2006-1935, CVE-2006-1936) Users of ethereal should upgrade to these updated packages containing version 0.99.0, which is not vulnerable to these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network, launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command: up2date This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate RPMs being upgraded on your system. 5.
