CVE-2005-4574
It was discovered that the MIME multipart dissector is vulnerable to denial of service caused by an off-by-one overflow.
CVE-2006-4805
It was discovered that the XOT dissector is vulnerable to denial of service caused by memory corruption.
For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in version 0.10.10-2sarge9. Due to technical problems with the security buildd infrastructure this update lacks builds for the hppa and sparc architecture. They will be released as soon as the problems are resolved.
For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed soon.
We recommend that you upgrade your ethereal packages.");
