Comment 1 David Walser 2013-01-30 22:26:03 CET
Updated packages uploaded for Mageia 2 and Cauldron.

Advisory:
========================

Updated wireshark packages fix security vulnerabilities:

Infinite and large loops in the Bluetooth HCI, CSN.1, DCP-ETSI DOCSIS
CM-STAUS, IEEE 802.3 Slow Protocols, MPLS, R3, RTPS, SDP, and SIP dissectors
(wnpa-sec-2013-01).

The CLNP dissector could crash (wnpa-sec-2013-02).

The DTN dissector could crash (wnpa-sec-2013-03).

The MS-MMC dissector (and possibly others) could crash (wnpa-sec-2013-04).

The DTLS dissector could crash (wnpa-sec-2013-05).

The DCP-ETSI dissector could corrupt memory (wnpa-sec-2013-07).

The Wireshark dissection engine could crash (wnpa-sec-2013-08).

The NTLMSSP dissector could overflow a buffer (wnpa-sec-2013-09).

Testing mga2 32

Before
------
$ wireshark 8023-slow-protocols.pcap
17:05:20          Warn Dissector bug, protocol 802.3 Slow protocols, in packet 1: More than 1000000 items in the tree -- possible infinite loop
17:05:21          Warn Dissector bug, protocol 802.3 Slow protocols, in packet 1: More than 1000000 items in the tree -- possible infinite loop
^C

The above causes max cpu load and the errors seen. Killed with ctrl-c.

$ tshark -nr fuzz-2012-10-16-23114.pcap
...etc
Segmentation Fault

$ tshark -nr fuzz-2012-10-31-25737.pcap 

No ill effect, also tried with wireshark.

$ wireshark packet-ms-mms.pcap

No ill effect, also tried tshark.

$ wireshark packet-dtls.pcap
Segmentation fault

$ tshark -nr process_packet.pcap

No ill effect, but crashes with wireshark.

$ wireshark process_packet.pcap
17:19:25          Err  Memory corrupted
Trace/breakpoint trap


$ wireshark packet-per.pcap

No error, also tried tshark.



After
-----
Repeated the tests without issue.

Captures ok when started as root. Testing complete mga2 32

Whiteboard: (none) => has_procedure mga2-32-ok

Comment 4 Dave Hodgins 2013-02-02 01:59:15 CET
Testing complete on Mageia 2 x86-64.  Identical to i586 results.

Could someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
wireshark-1.6.13-1.mga2.src.rpm
from Mageia 2 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates.
