Description Mark J. Cox 2003-12-16 13:08:16 UTC
Issues have been discovered in the following protocol dissectors:

    * Selecting "Match->Selected" or "Prepare->Selected" for a
malformed SMB packet could cause a segmentation fault.
    * It is possible for the Q.931 dissector to dereference a null
pointer when reading a malformed packet. 

Disclosed Dec12. Ethereal 0.10.0 released with fixes.

        Affects: 2.1AS 2.1AW 2.1ES 2.1WS
        Affects: 3AW 3ES 3WS
