Package        : kismet
Vulnerability  : several
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-2626 CAN-2005-2627
CERT advisory  : 
BugTraq ID     : 
Debian Bug     : 

Several security related problems have been discovered in kismet, a
wireless 802.11b monitoring tool.  The Common Vulnerabilities and
Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CAN-2005-2626

    Insecure handling of unprintable characters in the SSID.


CAN-2005-2627

    Multiple integer underflows could allow remote attackers to
    execute arbitrary code.


The old stable distribution (woody) does not seem to be affected by
these problems.

For the stable distribution (sarge) these problems have been fixed in
version 2005.04.R1-1sarge1.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in
version 2005.08.R1-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your kismet package.
