(Ethereal: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    There are multiple vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal earlier than
    0.10.10, including:
    The Etheric, 3GPP2 A11 and IAPP dissectors are vulnerable to buffer
    overflows (CAN-2005-0704, CAN-2005-0699 and CAN-2005-0739).
    The GPRS-LLC could crash when the 'ignore cipher bit' option is
    enabled (CAN-2005-0705).
    Various vulnerabilities in JXTA and sFlow dissectors.
  
Impact :

    An attacker might be able to use these vulnerabilities to crash
    Ethereal and execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
    running Ethereal, which could be the root user.
  
Workaround :

    For a temporary workaround you can disable all affected protocol
    dissectors. However, it is strongly recommended that you upgrade to the
    latest stable version."
