+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Ethereal is a feature-rich network protocol analyzer.

+ <description>
+ <p>
+ There are numerous vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal prior
+ to 0.10.12, including:
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li>The SMB dissector could overflow a
+ buffer or exhaust memory (CAN-2005-2365).</li>
+ <li>iDEFENSE discovered
+ that several dissectors are vulnerable to format string overflows
+ (CAN-2005-2367).</li>
+ <li>Additionally multiple potential crashes in
+ many dissectors have been fixed, see References for further
+ details.</li>
+ </ul>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ An attacker might be able to use these vulnerabilities to crash
+ Ethereal or execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
+ running Ethereal, which could be the root user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Ethereal users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-analyzer/ethereal-0.10.12"</code>
