    - CVE-2011-1139: Denial Of Service (application crash)       via a pcap-ng file that contains a large packet-length       field

    - CVE-2011-0713: heap-based buffer overflow when reading       malformed Nokia DCT3 phone signaling traces

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2011:0369 advisory.

    Wireshark is a program for monitoring network traffic. Wireshark was     previously known as Ethereal.

    A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the Wireshark MAC-LTE     dissector. If Wireshark read a malformed packet off a network or opened a     malicious dump file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as     the user running Wireshark. (CVE-2011-0444)

    A heap-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way Wireshark processed     signaling traces generated by the Gammu utility on Nokia DCT3 phones     running in Netmonitor mode. If Wireshark opened a specially-crafted capture     file, it could crash or, possibly, execute arbitrary code as the user     running Wireshark. (CVE-2011-0713)

    Several denial of service flaws were found in Wireshark. Wireshark could     crash or stop responding if it read a malformed packet off a network, or     opened a malicious dump file. (CVE-2011-0538, CVE-2011-1139, CVE-2011-1140,     CVE-2011-1141)

    Users of Wireshark should upgrade to these updated packages, which contain     Wireshark version 1.2.15, and resolve these issues. All running instances     of Wireshark must be restarted for the update to take effect.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Red Hat Enterprise Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote MiracleLinux 4 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the AXSA:2011-117:01 advisory.

    Wireshark is a network traffic analyzer for Unix-ish operating systems.
    This package lays base for libpcap, a packet capture and filtering library, contains command-line     utilities, contains plugins and documentation for wireshark. A graphical user interface is packaged     separately to GTK+ package.
    Security issues fixed with this release:
    CVE-2011-0444     Buffer overflow in the MAC-LTE dissector (epan/dissectors/packet-mac-lte.c) in Wireshark 1.2.0 through     1.2.13 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly     execute arbitrary code via a large number of RARs.
    CVE-2011-0538     Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.14, 1.4.0 through 1.4.3, and 1.5.0 frees an uninitialized pointer during     processing of a .pcap file in the pcap-ng format, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of     service (memory corruption) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a malformed file.
    CVE-2011-0713     Heap-based buffer overflow in wiretap/dct3trace.c in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.14 and 1.4.0 through     1.4.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) or possibly have     unspecified other impact via a long record in a Nokia DCT3 trace file.
    CVE-2011-1139     wiretap/pcapng.c in Wireshark 1.2.0 through 1.2.14 and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (application crash) via a pcap-ng file that contains a large packet-length     field.
    CVE-2011-1140     Multiple stack consumption vulnerabilities in the dissect_ms_compressed_string and dissect_mscldap_string     functions in Wireshark 1.0.x, 1.2.0 through 1.2.14, and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allow remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (infinite recursion) via a crafted (1) SMB or (2) Connection-less LDAP (CLDAP)     packet.
    CVE-2011-1141     epan/dissectors/packet-ldap.c in Wireshark 1.0.x, 1.2.0 through 1.2.14, and 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 allows     remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via (1) a long LDAP filter string or     (2) an LDAP filter string containing many elements.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the MiracleLinux security advisory.

Wireshark was updated to version 1.4.4 to fix several security issues

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201110-02 (Wireshark: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Wireshark. Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote attacker could send specially crafted packets on a network       being monitored by Wireshark, entice a user to open a malformed packet       trace file using Wireshark, or deploy a specially crafted Lua script for       use by Wireshark, possibly resulting in the execution of arbitrary code,       or a Denial of Service condition.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.
