    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wireshark. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets on a network       being monitored by Wireshark, entice a user to open a malformed packet       trace file using Wireshark, or deploy a specially crafted Lua script for       use by Wireshark, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code,       or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The installed version of Wireshark or Ethereal is 1.2.0 - 1.2.10 or 0.8.4 - 1.0.15.  Such versions are affected by the following vulnerability :

  - The application uses a fixed path to look for specific     files or libraries, such as for 'airpcap.dll', and this     path includes directories that may not be trusted or     under user control. If a malicious DLL with the same     name as a required DLL is located in the application's     current working directory, the malicious DLL will be     loaded. (Bug 5133)
