+Package: ethereal
+Vulnerability: arbitrary code execution
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= ethereal-0.10.2-20040329 >= ethereal-0.10.3-20040330
+OpenPKG 2.0 <= ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.0 >= ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.1
+OpenPKG 1.3 <= ethereal-0.9.14-1.3.0 >= ethereal-0.9.14-1.3.1
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ According to a security advisory [0] based on hints from Stefan
+ Esser and Jonathan Heussser, several vulnerabilities of various
+ types exist in the Ethereal network protocol analyzer [1]. Namely,
+ it may be possible to make Ethereal crash or run arbitrary code by
+ injecting a purposefully malformed packet onto the wire, by
+ convincing someone to read a malformed packet trace file, or by
+ creating a malformed color filter file.
+
+ The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the
+ identifiers CAN-2004-0176 [2] and CAN-2004-0365 [3] to the problems
+ concerning protocol dissectors and RADIUS packets.
+
+ The zero-length presentation protocol selector vulnerability named
+ in the Ethereal advisory does not affect OpenPKG though, because such
+ presentation protocol selectors are not implemented in any Ethereal
+ versions released by OpenPKG.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm
+ -q ethereal". If you have the "ethereal" package installed and its
+ version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
+ upgrade it (see Solution) [4][5].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [6][7], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [8][9] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [10], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [4] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [5]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.0, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.0/UPD
+ ftp> get ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/ethereal-0.10.0a-2.0.1.*.rpm
