CentOS Errata and Security Advisory CESA-2006:0658

Wireshark is a program for monitoring network traffic.

Bugs were found in Wireshark’s SCSI and SSCOP protocol dissectors. Ethereal
could crash or stop responding if it read a malformed packet off the
network. (CVE-2006-4330, CVE-2006-4333)

An off-by-one bug was found in the IPsec ESP decryption preference parser.
Ethereal could crash or stop responding if it read a malformed packet off
the network. (CVE-2006-4331)

Users of Wireshark or Ethereal should upgrade to these updated packages
containing Wireshark version 0.99.3, which is not vulnerable to these
issues. These packages also fix a bug in the PAM configuration of the
Wireshark packages which prevented non-root users starting a capture.
