CVE-2005-3242

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Ethereal versions 0.10.12 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a crash, via unknown vectors in the IrDA dissector and the SMB dissector when SMB transaction payload reassembly is enabled.

Recommendations For versions 0.10.12 and earlier, consider disabling the IrDA and SMB dissectors to prevent potential crashes until a fix is available. Restrict access to the SMB transaction payload reassembly feature to minimize the risk of exploitation.
