Impact
It may be possible to make Ethereal crash, use up available memory, or run
arbitrary code by injecting a purposefully malformed packet onto the wire or by
convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file.
Resolution
Upgrade to Wireshark 0.99.2.

If are running Ethereal 0.99.0 or earlier and cannot upgrade, you can disable
each of the dissectors listed above by doing the following:

    * Select AnalyzeâEnabled Protocols... from the menu.
    * Make sure every protocol listed above is un-checked.
    * Click "Save", then click "OK".
