Package(s):ettercap CVE #(s):CVE-2014-6396 CVE-2014-6395 CVE-2014-9377 CVE-2014-9376 CVE-2014-9379 CVE-2014-9378
Created:January 5, 2015 Updated:March 27, 2015
Description: From the CVE entries:

The dissector_postgresql function in dissectors/ec_postgresql.c in Ettercap before 8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted password length, which triggers a 0 character to be written to an arbitrary memory location. (CVE-2014-6396)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the dissector_postgresql function in dissectors/ec_postgresql.c in Ettercap before 8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted password length value that is inconsistent with the actual length of the password. (CVE-2014-6395)

Heap-based buffer overflow in the nbns_spoof function in plug-ins/nbns_spoof/nbns_spoof.c in Ettercap 8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code via a large netbios packet. (CVE-2014-9377)

Integer underflow in Ettercap 8.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds write) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a small (1) size variable value in the dissector_dhcp function in dissectors/ec_dhcp.c, (2) length value to the dissector_gg function in dissectors/ec_gg.c, or (3) string length to the get_decode_len function in ec_utils.c or a request without a (4) username or (5) password to the dissector_TN3270 function in dissectors/ec_TN3270.c. (CVE-2014-9376)

The radius_get_attribute function in dissectors/ec_radius.c in Ettercap 8.1 performs an incorrect cast, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via unspecified vectors, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow. (CVE-2014-9379)

Ettercap 8.1 does not validate certain return values, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted (1) name to the parse_line function in mdns_spoof/mdns_spoof.c or (2) base64 encoded password to the dissector_imap function in dissectors/ec_imap.c. (CVE-2014-9378)
