Package        : ethereal
Vulnerability  : denial of service
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids        : CAN-2004-0635

Several denial of service vulnerabilities were discovered in ethereal,
a network traffic analyzer.  These vulnerabilites are described in the
ethereal advisory "enpa-sa-00015".  Of these, only one (CAN-2004-0635)
affects the version of ethereal in Debian woody.  This vulnerability
could be exploited by a remote attacker to crash ethereal with an
invalid SNMP packet.

For the current stable distribution (woody), these problems have been
fixed in version 0.9.4-1woody8.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 0.10.5-1.

We recommend that you update your ethereal package.
