A number of string handling bugs were found in the packet dissectors in
ethereal that can be exploited using specially crafted packets to cause
ethereal to consume excessive amounts of memory, crash, or even execute
arbitray code.
These vulnerabilities have been fixed upsteam in ethereal 0.9.13 and
all users are encouraged to upgrade.
