-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- Red Hat Security Advisory Synopsis: Updated Ethereal packages fix security issues Advisory ID: RHSA-2004:234-01 Issue date: 2004-06-09 Updated on: 2004-06-09 Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Keywords: Cross references: Obsoletes: RHSA-2004:136 CVE Names: CAN-2004-0504 CAN-2004-0505 CAN-2004-0506 - --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Updated Ethereal packages that fix various security vulnerabilities are now available. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (Advanced Server) version 2.1 - i386, ia64 Red Hat Linux Advanced Workstation 2.1 - ia64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 2.1 - i386 Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, s390, s390x, x86_64 Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64 3. Problem description: Ethereal is a program for monitoring network traffic. The MMSE dissector in Ethereal releases 0.10.1 through 0.10.3 contained a buffer overflow flaw. On a system where Ethereal is running, a remote attacker could send malicious packets that could cause Ethereal to crash or execute arbitrary code. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2004-0507 to this issue. In addition, other flaws in Ethereal prior to 0.10.4 were found that could cause it to crash in response to carefully crafted SIP (CAN-2004-0504), AIM (CAN-2004-0505), or SPNEGO (CAN-2004-0506) packets. Users of Ethereal should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain backported security patches that correct these issues. 4. Solution: Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant to your system have been applied. Please note that 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.
