Various problems have been fixed in the network analyzer Ethereal, most leading to crashes of the ethereal program.
A unspecified vulnerability in the LDAP dissector could be used to crash Ethereal. (CVE-2006-5740)
A single \0 byte heap overflow was fixed in the MIME multipart dissector. Potential of exploitability is unknown, but considered low. (CVE-2006-4574)
A denial of service problem in the XOT dissector can cause it to take up huge amount of memory and crash ethereal. (CVE-2006-4805)
The WBXML dissector could be used to crash ethereal.
(CVE-2006-5469)
A NULL pointer dereference in the HTTP dissector could crash ethereal. (CVE-2006-5468)
