MiracleLinux 3 : wireshark-1.0.15-1.1.0.1.AXS3 (AXSA:2010-417:02)

high Nessus Plugin ID 284145

Synopsis

The remote MiracleLinux host is missing one or more security updates.

Description

The remote MiracleLinux 3 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2010-417:02 advisory.

 This package lays base for libpcap, a packet capture and filtering library, contains command-line utilities, contains plugins and documentation for wireshark. A graphical user interface is packaged separately to GTK+ package.
 Security issues fixed with this release:
 CVE-2010-1455 The DOCSIS dissector in Wireshark 0.9.6 through 1.0.12 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.7 allows user-assisted remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed packet trace file.
 CVE-2010-2283 The SMB dissector in Wireshark 0.99.6 through 1.0.13, and 1.2.0 through 1.2.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via unknown vectors.
 CVE-2010-2284 Buffer overflow in the ASN.1 BER dissector in Wireshark 0.10.13 through 1.0.13 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.8 has unknown impact and remote attack vectors.
 CVE-2010-2286 The SigComp Universal Decompressor Virtual Machine dissector in Wireshark 0.10.7 through 1.0.13 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.8 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via unknown vectors.
 CVE-2010-2287 Buffer overflow in the SigComp Universal Decompressor Virtual Machine dissector in Wireshark 0.10.8 through 1.0.13 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.8 has unknown impact and remote attack vectors.
 CVE-2010-2995 The SigComp Universal Decompressor Virtual Machine (UDVM) in Wireshark 0.10.8 through 1.0.14 and 1.2.0 through 1.2.9 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via vectors related to sigcomp-udvm.c and an off-by-one error, which triggers a buffer overflow, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-2287.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Update the affected wireshark and / or wireshark-gnome packages.
