Information about affected Wireshark versions: ---------------------------------------------- Issue a) NULL pointer dereference in the RADIUS dissector: ---------------------------------------------------------- This issue affects the versions of the wireshark package, as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This issue affects the versions of the Wireshark package, as shipped with Fedora releases of 10, 11, and Rawhide. Issue b) Integer overflow in the Bluetooth L2CAP dissector: ----------------------------------------------------------- This issue does NOT affect the versions of the wireshark package, as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This issue does NOT affect the version of the wireshark package, as shipped with Fedora release of 10. This issue affects the versions of the wireshark package, as shipped with Fedora releases of 11, and Rawhide. Issue c) Past-the-buffer read in the MIOP dissector: ---------------------------------------------------- This issue does NOT affect the versions of the wireshark package, as shipped with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4, and 5. This issue does NOT affect the version of the wireshark package, as shipped with Fedora release of 10. This issue affects the versions of the wireshark package, as shipped with Fedora releases of 11 and Rawhide. MITRE's CVE-2009-2560 entry: --------------------------- Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in Wireshark 1.2.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via unspecified vectors in the (1) Bluetooth L2CAP, (2) RADIUS, or (3) MIOP dissectors. NOTE: the RADIUS dissector vulnerability also affects 1.0.8.

A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted L2CAP packet capture file, which once opened by an unsuspecting user would lead to denial of service (Wireshark crash).

A remote attacker could provide a specially-crafted MIOP packet capture file, which once opened by an unsuspecting user, would attempt to read past the bounds of allocated buffer, leading to application (Wireshark) abort.
