Ethereal 0.10.8 has been released to address multiple vulnerabilities. These issues are reported to cause denial-of-service conditions in the application; some issues may allow arbitrary code execution. The following specific issues were specified: - A denial-of-service vulnerability presents itself in the DICOM dissector. - Another denial-of-service vulnerability occurs when handling a malformed RTP timestamp. - Another denial of service arises when Ethereal processes a specially crafted SMB packet. - The HTTP dissector may allow a remote attacker to access memory that was previously freed. This BID will be updated as more information becomes available.
