+    <p>
+    Ethereal is a feature rich network protocol analyzer.

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    There are multiple vulnerabilities in versions of Ethereal earlier than
+    0.10.5, including:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>In some cases the iSNS dissector could cause Ethereal to
+    abort.</li>
+    <li>If there was no policy name for a handle for SMB SID snooping it
+    could cause a crash.</li>
+    <li>A malformed or missing community string could cause the SNMP
+    dissector to crash.</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="high">
+    <p>
+    An attacker could use these vulnerabilities to crash Ethereal or even
+    execute arbitrary code with the permissions of the user running
+    Ethereal, which could be the root user.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    For a temporary workaround you can disable all affected protocol
+    dissectors by selecting Analyze->Enabled Protocols... and deselecting
+    them from the list. For SMB you can disable SID snooping in the SMB
+    protocol preference. However, it is strongly recommended to upgrade to
+    the latest stable version.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All Ethereal users should upgrade to the latest stable version:
+    </p>
